Why another whois client? Because the RIPE client is a mess of hacks and
|
|
#ifdefs and more complex programs lack features or are bloated.
|
|
|
|
This client is intelligent and can automatically select the appropriate
|
|
whois server for most queries.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Notes about the data files:
|
|
- domain names MUST be lowercase and MUST begin with "." or "-".
|
|
- first match wins (for both domains and netblocks)
|
|
- elements in tld_serv_list are matched against the end of the query
|
|
|
|
Please send me any information you have regarding domains and netblocks
|
|
not correctly handled by the program.
|
|
|
|
Please also try to compile after defining HAVE_GETADDRINFO and send me
|
|
working #defines for your flavour of UNIX.
|
|
|
|
The home of the program is

|
