Adds .edu.au override to jwhois.conf none

Description Paul Gear 2003-10-02 23:19:21 UTC
From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 Galeon/1.2.7 (X11; Linux i686; U;) Gecko/20030131

Description of problem:
There is no domain override for .edu.au domains in jwhois.conf, thus when a
domain in .edu.au is queried, the .au entry is used.  This actually returns
information, but it is not correct or current information, due to the fact that
.edu.au has been moved to ausregistry.net.au.  The default jwhois.conf should
include the line:


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
jwhois-3.2.1-1

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. jwhois anything.edu.au (uq.edu.au shown in examples below)
2.
3.
    

Actual Results:  [root@penguin root]# whois uq.edu.au
[Querying whois.aunic.net]

Comment 2 Miloslav Trmač 2004-08-15 15:29:19 UTC
There seems to be no difference now:

$ whois uq.edu.au > 1
$ whois -h whois.ausregistry.net.au uq.edu.au > 2

I also can't find any document supporting this change at www.aunic.net.

If the override still should be added, please report it
upstream at bug-jwhois.
Thanks.
