Maybe its me, but when I check whois.nsiregistry.net, it tells me to check rs.internic.net for contact information. ?? Deepak Jain AiNET On Tue, 16 Nov 1999, Newell, Tom wrote:

Redirecting Port 43 Whois
The following change is being made to comply with the recently negotiated and signed agreements between the U.S. Department of Commerce, ICANN, and NSI.
Effective December 1, 1999 Network Solutions will be redirecting port 43 (rs.internic.net) Whois from the NSI Registrar Whois to the NSI Registry Whois. The NSI Registry Whois can currently be found at whois.nsiregistry.net. After this occurs, port 43 Whois will show the following information: domain name, registrar, Whois server, registrar referral URL and the names of the name servers associated with the domain. To obtain registrant and domain name contact information, users will need to refer to the Whois service provided by the registrar for the domain name.
Send questions or comments to whois@nsiregistry.net.
