What is rIP? rIP is a reverse IP tool. It takes a hostname or IP address as input and returns all the vhosts running on the same IP address. Is this simply a reverse lookup? No. A reverse lookup is a function of DNS, and will only return one hostname per IP address. Why aren't all the vhosts on my server showing up? The resolution process is not perfect, and the database is not always complete. Why don't you support the .xyz TLD? Only certain TLDs are supported at this time, and more may be added in the future. However, many ccTLD maintainers will not provide a list of domains or access to their zone file, which makes it nearly impossible to support. I entered a host from an unsupported TLD and it came back with results. Does that mean the TLD is partially supported? No, it does not. The web application will take any host as input and then resolve it to an IP address. It will then search the database for all vhosts matching the IP address. However, it will only return results from supported TLDs. I enter http://www.google.com and I received no results. Is there a problem? Yes, you entered a URI. The web application takes a host or an IP address as input. Why does google.com return so many results? Do they actually own all those domains? When you register your domain, you can enter any IP address you want in to your DNS server. It seems that many people are parking their domains and using Google's IP in their DNS entries. This does not necessarily indicate that Google is hosting these sites, nor that these sites run on the same server. This isn't specific to Google - other IP addresses could have been used in this manner as well. Sometimes I enter a host, and multiple IP addresses are searched. Why is that? Some hosts have multiple IP addresses listed in DNS. The web application has been written so that if multiple IP addresses are returned from a host, all of them will be searched. If you want to limit results to a single IP address, enter that IP address instead of the hostname. Why aren't large result sets sorted? Result sets larger than 5000 will not be sorted at this time. It is too strenuous on the database. Is this your own database, or a front end for someone else's services? The database is our own and was generated from scratch. How often will the database be updated? The current plan is to update the database on the 1st of every month. Is the database for sale? Yes, the monthly build can be purchased for US $20.
