Hi all.

I'm trying to help out a client with their website but I can't for the life of me find out who the host is.
Whois details show it as DiaMatrix who host with Intdev but when enquiring with them they say they "think" they only hosting emails.

The site is http://www.elitepal.co.za/
I can get into a cpanel (where I can see email settings) but there are no files in file manager. The DNS settings show an A record for elitepal.co.za goes to 41.86.115.21 which is an error page

Any idea what I'm missing here? (I'm not a fundi on DNS settings)

Thanks in advance
 
Is it not hosted with these people:

https://internet.intdev.co.za/

A whois of the domain shows the name servers as:

ns1.intdev.co.za [ 196.35.68.101 ]
ns2.intdev.co.za [ 196.35.68.99 ]

...

Maybe?

And the IP address that the website is hosted on belongs to VOX - So I assume that the VukaCloud place resells Vox services...

DiaMatrix (Domains.co.za) - We don't host with anyone, we host ourselves :)

The elitepal.co.za dns record points to 196.41.214.134 which is hosted on Vox's shared hosting as far as I can see.

The MX record (mail exchange record) is 41.86.115.21

It's not a website, so obviously you will get an error.

The A record is 196.41.214.134

http://www.intodns.com/elitepal.co.za

The IP address for the Mail points to MWEB Connect Hosting, and you will find Intdev.co.za is one of the domains on that IP

http://w3bin.com/ip_info/41.86.115.21

Thus, it's safe to assume that elitepal.co.za website and email is hosted by www.intdev.co.za
 
Remember, you don't have to host your email on the same server you host your website on
 
Hosted on:

41.86.115.21 --> molopo.intdev.co.za.

Name: Intdev Internet Technologies
Organisation:
Email: [email protected]
Tel: +27.117870107
Fax: +27.117872338

Their DNS sits under the IS umbrella...

Not sure what else you want to know :)

Yea, that's exactly what I said, with links to references to backup my statements
