Description Robert Scheck 2009-02-22 03:55:39 UTC
Description of problem:
Please add a whois server for .lc, currently /etc/jwhois.conf doesn't mention 
any for this TLD. I'm aware, that http://www.iana.org/domains/root/db/lc.html
from IANA doesn't list any, but if you look to that site, the authoritative
DNS servers are from Afilias and in fact, Afilias is the technical contact and
provides the technical equipment for the .lc registry - so let's use a whois
server there which even works as expected.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
jwhois-4.0-10

How reproducible:
Everytime, whois query fails.

Actual results:
# whois nic.lc
[Querying whois.internic.net]
[whois.internic.net]
[...]
#

Expected results:
Add the following line in /etc/jwhois.conf after "\\.lb$" and everything works:

  "\\.lc$" = "whois2.afilias-grs.net";

Because:

# whois -h whois2.afilias-grs.net nic.lc
[Querying whois2.afilias-grs.net]
[whois2.afilias-grs.net]
[...]
#

Additional info:
Please try to get this fix upstream - upstream is unluckily always very very
unresponsive to me.
