You could always ask the A root server (or one of the others) what it thinks the IP should be: % dig l.root-servers.net. @a.root-servers.net | grep l ; <<>> DiG 9.8.3-P1 <<>> l.root-servers.net. @a.root-servers.net ;; global options: +cmd ;; flags: qr aa rd; QUERY: 1, ANSWER: 1, AUTHORITY: 13, ADDITIONAL: 14 ;; WARNING: recursion requested but not available ;l.root-servers.net.
