How to find a website's DNS (name server) address

To find a website's DNS (name server) address, you can use the nslookup command. The syntax is as follows:

nslookup -type=ns domain

Replace domain with the domain name of the website you are looking up.

For example, to find the DNS address of the website example.com, you would run the following command:

nslookup -type=ns example.com

This will display the name server addresses for the website.

You can also use the dig command to look up the DNS address of a website. The syntax is as follows:

dig NS domain

For example, to find the DNS address of the website example.com, you would run the following command:

dig NS example.com

This will display the name server addresses for the website.

You can also use online DNS lookup tools to find the DNS address of a website. These tools allow you to enter a domain name and display the name server addresses for the website.

Keep in mind that a website may have multiple name server addresses, and it is possible for the DNS address to change over time. It is also possible for a website to use a third-party DNS service, in which case the DNS address may be different from the website's domain name.
