You can usually just do this too :

zaphod:~$ nslookup 192.190.215.43
Server:  neddy.newcastle.edu.au
Address:  134.148.24.1

Name:    sydney43.world.net
Address:  192.190.215.43

: The other one has me stumped though - nslookup and dig don't find anything...

Try using whois

zaphod:~$ whois 192.190.215
