nxx.com.
(ns2,ns1).rookdns.com.
We pick l.root-servers.net, one of the 13 root servers (1), and ask it about x.nxx.com and learn that com is delegated to 13 name servers (2), so we ask h.gtld-servers.net where we learn that nxx.com is delegated to two name servers, including ns2.rookdns.com (3), so we ask that one and get the following answer:
X.nxx.com is a domain controlled by two domain name servers at rookdns.com. Both are on the same IP network. X.nxx.com has one IP number (141.8.224.183), which is the same as for nxx.com, but the reverse is ?.
