Re: finding whois servers, was .pro whois registry down?

[John R. Levine]

- a link from that top-level page to the whole list, in regex-aware,
whois.conf-compatible format

What uses whois.conf?   Not the whois on my FreeBSD or Mac.

Or you can just use this shell script:

 #!/bin/bash
 WHOISHOST=${1##*.}.ws.sp.am
 exec whois -h $WHOISHOST $*
