Hi, guys, how are you all in this lecture?
What we are going to do here is we are going to understand what is hoy's and what is who is information
that it contains inside it.
OK, so first, let me understand what is Hoy's?
So his records are used to retrieve the registration details provided by the TOMINE owner to the domain
registrar.
It is a protocol that is used to extract information about the domain and associated contact information.
So you can you can simply view the name, address, phone number and email address of the person or
entity who registered the domain name.
So whose servers are operated by regional Internet registrars, which is also called this idea and can
be created directly over the port facility.
So in the early days, there was only one who is server on the Internet, but the number of servers
are increased with the expansion of Internet.
If the information for the requested domain name is not present with the created server, then the request
is then forwarded to the WHO is server of the domain registrar and the result return to the end client.
So the WHO is a tool is built into the clinics and can be run from the terminal.
So now guys, let's see how we can use who is a soldier for extracting the information about any particular
domain name.
OK, so for using the who is server, what you need to do here is you need to simply open it with the
help of Tumnus.
So when you click on this black icon, it will open the terminal window for you.
OK, now let's.
Increase the size of this window.
OK, so what you need to do there is simply the syntax of using who is is simply type who is in the
domain name.
So I'm going to extract information about the two dot com and hit enter.
After hitting enter, it will extract all the information it contains inside it, so it will take some
time.
You have to wait till the completion of all of these things.
OK, so now as you can see that we are having this much information using who is command.
OK, so if you are a professional penalties and then you know what information will be the juicy data
for you.
But if you are not in this field, so what you can do here is you can simply not known each and everything.
OK, so now let's see from the starting, OK?
So this is the dominion that we have.
This is the registered domain name star who so is this, which is register C dot com and the entry date
is this registrars, FLC, Ironi contact email is this and these are the things now here.
What you can see here is what are the name servers names.
There was this AP for Facebook dot com and then when you scroll it down.
You will see the related information about the Facebook dot com.
So what happened here is inside the whose's.
As you can see here, the restaurant name is Domain Admin and organization is Facebook.
And the city is this this.
And this is the zip code.
And this is the country.
This is the phone number.
And as you can see, this is the email domain or email of restaurant and.
You will find all the little information about the target.
OK, if you want to see more information about the target, then you can simply subscribe to any service
which provides the information.
So this is how you can choose who is.
OK, so now this is the way you can use your terminal for the whois information.
So there is another way using the Web browser.
There are many sites which provide to the service of who is simply type who is.
And hit enter.
So often heading into what you will see, there are many surveys that many websites that are providing
the WHO is information about any particular domain.
So I'm going with this, OK, who is dot com?
So when you click on this link, it will look like something like this.
OK, so.
OK, so this is the.
In the face of this, simply.
Their domain name and hit enter.
So when you hit enter, it will attract all the information in a detailed manner and in a very collected
manner in front of you to represent each and everything what it has related to that particular domain
inside it.
OK, so this is the domain.
This is the registrar.
And this will expand on this and updated on this date.
And this is a status and these are the name servers.
OK, so now what you when you scroll it down, you will find this.
This is the contact detail of the admin and then we are having administrative contact.
OK, and for the technical content, you will find these.
Then we are having this detail that we have seen using the terminal.
OK, so this is information that we have.
You suppose that I want to see the information like, OK, Yahoo dot com and hit enter.
So when you hit enter, you will find these informations regarding Yahoo!
Dot com.
OK, now this is the way to find out the general information about the domain.
So this is not a very juicy data for you, for you.
This data can help you in info or social engineering, actually.
OK, this data will help you in social engineering.
So this is how you can use your terminal and this is how you can use your website or Google search for
finding the WHO is information regarding or related to any particular domain name or any Web site.
