It would be of great use if you could actually give us the domain name. Without it, this is how you would find out details about your domain name.
dig a domain.name (this will give you the A record for your domain name). dig mx domain.name (This will give you the MX record for your domain name) dig soa domain.name (This will give you details about which name servers are authoritative for your domain name) Each of the responses above will give you an IP address. From the IP address given, you can find out who owns it: whois ip.add.re.ss (sometimes you may need to add the -h flag with an RIR whois database address, e.g -h whois.afrinic.net) Usually the whois records will give you names of the registered owners of the IP addresses. Also, whois domain.name will also give you who the registrar of the domain name is. As above, depending on where the domain is registered, you will need to use the -h flag to provide a hostname: for example, whois -h registra.co.ug linux.or.ug will give you information on who registered/owns the linux.or.ug domain name. Just doing whois linux.or.ugwill not return any results.
