A field I specialize in is Internet Investigations and there are ways of
ascertaining the details of a 'computer' [sic] user, of an IP address but
the ONLY way to really achieve this 100% is by subpoena.

Other methods entail hours of either Internet Investigations or Pretext
calling.

It's possible though,, 80-90% of the time. To ascertain the city that the IP
is used in so you can narrow down 'suspects' as an example.

Obviously its real easy to get the IP NetBlock and know who the ISP is.

Subject: Correlating an IP address with a phone number

Greetings,

Is there a way to correlate an IP address with a phone number? Or a 
range of IP addresses with a range of phone numbers?
Brief googling mentioned the existance of a database of some sort that 
every country keeps, responsible of just that.
Any comments welcome. 

Many Thanks
S.
