Obviously can't be sure. It's an IP address belonging to RoadRunner, according to the DNS authority section. The reverse DNS lookup yields the name: cpe-72-191-163-46.elp.res.rr.com Traceroute from my location a few moments ago terminated at: gig0-1.elpstxh5-ubr2.elp.rr.com The traceroute went through what appears to be a router in the Dallas area and then possibly in Houston, based on guesses from probable host name conventions used by RR. Maybe someone with better tools and info can provide more accurate info. What makes you interested, if I may ask? |

After I posted I found the Network Utility with a Ping and Traceroute Tab, so I just got the same data you did. Looks like Texas. Reason is nothing sinister really; curiosity about a Usenet prankster. :-) -- Dudley Henriques |

I'm on a Mac and I don't have a DOS prompt. If you're using OS-X you've got something much, much better than a "DOS" prompt. You've got a proper UNIX shell! |
