On most of all the flavors of Unix I have used in recent years, whois -h whois.server query works. ie: whois -h whois.arin.net 192.168.1 Regards, Jeff -----Original Message----- From: owner-nanog@merit.edu [mailto:owner-nanog@merit.edu]On Behalf Of Mathias Koerber Sent: Tuesday, May 15, 2001 10:18 AM To: mike harrison; Peter van Dijk Cc: nanog@nanog.org Subject: RE: Whois -a?
whois -a is most commonly seen on BSD systems, and is most definitely not available on every current UNIX.
You can query any whois server with query@server ie: 192.168.1.1@arin.net works.
This too is dependent on your WHOIS client, and NOT available (by default) on all UNICES.
