Description of problem: Please add some more useful options at server-options { } in /etc/jwhois.conf, following are performing very useful redirects or special queries to some of the whois servers out there... Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): jwhois-4.0-10 How reproducible: Everytime. Actual and expected results: --- snipp --- "whois2\\.afilias-grs\\.net" { whois-redirect = "Whois Server:\\(.*\\)"; } "whois\\.registrar\\.telekom\\.de" { query-format = "full $*"; } "whois\\.rrpproxy\\.net" { answer-charset = "UTF-8"; } --- snapp --- Additional info: Please try to get this fix upstream - upstream is unluckily always very very unresponsive to me.
