Created attachment 919535 [details] Use whois.apnic.net instead of the defunct whois.v6nic.net Description of problem: jwhois uses whois.v6nic.net for the 43.0.0.0/8 block, but this domain seems to have been taken over by a squatter. Use APNIC instead. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): jwhois-4.0-33.fc20 How reproducible: Always. Steps to Reproduce: 1. jwhois 43.247.192.0 2. 3. Actual results: $ jwhois 43.247.192.0 [Querying whois.v6nic.net] [whois.v6nic.net: Name or service not known] [Unable to connect to remote host] Expected results: WHOIS query should have gone through.
