I resolve it using RIPE Web service (the easier way):
http://www.ripe.net/cgi-bin/whois?query=212.240.10.1&.submit=Submit+Query
but I see our own server is resolved to the company leasing us the line, so
I think this method can't be 100% sure.
I try a DNSlookup on ns0.demon.co.uk (ns.ripe.net point to it) with
following results:
Header:
ID=246, QR=Response, Opcode=QUERY, RCODE=NAME ERROR
Authoritative Answer=Yes, Truncation=No
Recursion Desired=Yes, Recursion Available=No
QDCOUNT=1, ANCOUNT=0, NSCOUNT=1, ARCOUNT=0
Question:
Name=1.10.240.212.IN-ADDR.ARPA, QTYPE=ALL, QCLASS=1
Authority Records Section:
- Name=240.212.in-addr.arpa
Type=SOA, Class=1, TTL=54000 (15 Hours), RDLENGTH=59
Name Server=ns0.demon.co.uk, Mailbox=hostmaster.demon.net
Serial=2000041711
Refresh=28800 (8 Hours)
Retry=7200 (2 Hours)
Expire=864000 (10 Days)
Minimum TTL=54000 (15 Hours)

BTW, Stephen, how is your new office going?
