Is this a function of whois hardcoded to no do lookups for this address space? I can't seem to find any info about the range, beyond "registered but unallocated". I figured whois would at least return something about it not being allocated.
Is this hijacked space?
Please note that this error is actually being returned by the 'whois' program because it is out of date and does not know what registrar this IP range was allocated to yet quads:~ lathiat$ whois -h whois.arin.net 97.81.31.19 Charter Communications NETBLK-CHARTER-NET (NET-97-80-0-0-1) 97.80.0.0 - 97.90.255.255 Charter Communications KNG-TN-97-81-24 (NET-97-81-24-0-1) 97.81.24.0 - 97.81.31.255 # ARIN WHOIS database, last updated 2007-09-18 19:10 # Enter ? for additional hints on searching ARIN's WHOIS database. quads:~ lathiat$ Regards, Trent
