We pick c.root-servers.net, one of the 13 root servers (1), and ask it about yummynames.com and learn that com is delegated to 13 name servers (2), so we ask b.gtld-servers.net where we learn that yummynames.com is delegated to three name servers, including ns2.tucows.com (3), so we ask that one and get the following answer:
Yummynames.com is a domain controlled by three domain name servers at tucows.com. Two domain name servers have the same IP number. Both are on different IP networks. Incoming mail for yummynames.com is handled by one mail server at hostedemail.com. Yummynames.com has one IP number (64.99.51.31), but the reverse is ?.
