nslookup www.safesquiddns.com

Address:        127.0.0.1#53

Non-authoritative answer:
www.safesquiddns.com       canonical name = safesquiddns.com.
Name:   safesquiddns.com
Address: 164.177.149.146

If the website is not able to resolve

root@dev:~# nslookup www.safesquiddns.com
Server:         127.0.0.1
Address:        127.0.0.1#53
