I went to the exact URL you gave above and all I get is: Error: No results were found for your search. Your search details may be too selective. Well, it doesn't matter anyway. What I would really like is a solution that I can use with the good-old-fashioned WHOIS server... _not_ via the web interface. How can I find all IPv{4,6} allocations assigned to a given LIR using the actual WHOIS server? (An actual example would be most helpful.) >> Question: Given some pre-existing record for an IP{4,6} address block >> that exists, right now, within the RIPE WHOIS server, how may one >> determine which LIR, specifically, was responsible for assignment of >> that address block to the registered end user?

OK! Duh! I should have known that. thanks. >> Question: Given some specific "admin-c" or "tech-c" contact handle, >> how may one determine the entire set of number resources that are, >> at present, associated with that given handle? > >Another inverse query. There's a handy web interface with clicky boxes if >you prefer that to a command line client. No, I greatly prefer what you are calling the "command line interface", which is, I assme, what I am calling the good-old-fashioned WHOIS service (TCP port 43). >> Question: > >Have you considered looking at the extensive documentation and training >materials on the RIPE NCC's web site? I did, actually. It is not the most clear piece of technical documentation I have ever encountered. But I will give it another try. Regards, rfg
