How do I get the IP address of this website?

I want the IP address of https://sfbay.craigslist.org.

C:\Users\dude>ping https://sfbay.craigslist.org
Ping request could not find host https://sfbay.craigslist.org. 
Please check the name and try again.

So, I tried nslookup. None of the IP's in the output allow me to connect to the website using a browser. How do I get the right IP & connect ?

C:\Users\nisum>nslookup https://sfbay.craigslist.org/
Server:  cachens1.paetec.net
Address:  66.155.216.122

Solution

  • Pings usually don't include the protocol. The command below worked for me.

    ping sfbay.craigslist.org
