(ns14,ns15).zoneedit.com.
We pick d.root-servers.net, one of the 13 root servers (1), and ask it about paintmycanvas.com and learn that com is delegated to 13 name servers (2), so we ask e.gtld-servers.net where we learn that paintmycanvas.com is delegated to two name servers, including ns14.zoneedit.com (3), so we ask that one and get the following answer:
Paintmycanvas.com is a domain controlled by two domain name servers at zoneedit.com. Both are on different IP networks. Incoming mail for paintmycanvas.com is handled by two mail servers also at zoneedit.com. Both are on different IP networks.
The two name servers ns14 and ns15.zoneedit.com together
There are more than a thousands domains that use name server group 1.
One quarter of those use the primary name server ns14.zoneedit.com (example: ofenstein.com and mmrn.com ). Worth noting is that a third of the domains that use the primary name server ns14.zoneedit.com use name server group 1.
