One of my Debian servers has a tool called 'dnstracer', I'd be surprised if it was available as part of the stock CentOS but maybe available in a 3rd party repo or some similar tool:
dig's +trace option can do the same thing, though its reporting isn't as nicely formatted as dnstracer's:
dig +trace www.atbfinancialonline.com
First you'll see dig resolving "." (the root domain), then getting the master servers for "com.", then for "atbfinancialonline.com."
