- ripewhois
The RIPE version of the whois client program.
This is intended for European users as it will query a RIPE whois
server with extended whois capabilities rather than a standard whois
protocol server. The ripewhois program is fully compatible with the
standard whois protocol and can thus replace your default whois
program.
This program is aware of quite some extra flags that the standard whois
doesn't support. Just try 'ripewhois' without arguments to see an
explanation of these. Please note that most of these flags are NOT
supported by non RIPE whois servers. In cases where you use this client
to query non RIPE whois servers, you should not use any of these
flags.
This client supports the "-v" option and the argument "all" to
"-t" and "-v".
- networkupdate
A program that allows updating the RIPE database with the whois
protocol instead of the usual E-mail interface. This program can
usually only be used by the administrators of the whois server itself.
The updating mechanism is too powerfull (for now) to allow the general
public to use this mechanism. The server is protected by means of an
accesslist.
