DNS look up against a specific DNS provider

Thanks, but that gives even less info: IP Details - N/A.

It does not even find the rDNS of my ISPs name for my box.

You might look to webhosting.info for the reverse info you are looking for

That actually seems like a reasonable response.  Dyndns probably isn't
authoritative for the reverse zone.  It is also likely that they don't
support recursive queries from external clients.  As a result, the IP you
are looking for is, in all likelihood, *not* in dyndns server's  cache.

I've gave those a shot without luck. Here are the results I got(I change
my
IP to ip-obmitted  for this output):

Does anyone know a way to specify a reverse DNS look up against a

given
IP range. For example, look up all of the IPs at my org to see if any
are
mapped to some host name at DYNDNS? Some bot nets use these services
for
naming, so I thought this might be useful.

I may be misunderstanding, but both nslookup and dig let you specify
the server to query.  Using dig, adding @server.example.org to the
command tells dig to query only that server (IIRC).

 dig @ns1.everydns.net yahoo.com
