Dear Scott,<br>
<br>
we added the following section to the installation instructions with
more information on how you can load the local Whois database with
some initial test content and run a telnet or a REST API query:<br>
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://github.com/RIPE-NCC/whois/wiki/Installation-instructions#load-local-whois-with-initial-test-content">https://github.com/RIPE-NCC/whois/wiki/Installation-instructions#load-local-whois-with-initial-test-content</a><br>
<br>
We hope that this is in the right direction! <br>
<br>
Kind regards,<br>

<p class="MsoNormal">Hi all,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I’m new to the db-wg, and I’m just
beginning to explore the code from
<a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="https://github.com/RIPE-NCC/whois.git">https://github.com/RIPE-NCC/whois.git</a>.
I’d like to use the code to run a private whois server to
integrate with our Infoblox IPAM system. I’ve cloned the
repository and followed the instructions posted at
<a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="https://github.com/RIPE-NCC/whois/wiki/Installation-instructions">https://github.com/RIPE-NCC/whois/wiki/Installation-instructions</a>
. The instructions, however, don’t include any details on
‘priming’ the whois database – using the SQL from the
whois-commons/target/classes/<database>_schema.sql
files, I get all my databases and tables created, but there is
no data in the tables. I’m assuming that I need to have at
least a ‘mntner’ in the WHOIS_LOCAL/mntner table, and I added
a single entry manually with an object_id of 0, but I still
can’t seem to use any update method (synchupdates, REST, etc.)
to add new information to the database.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Would it be possible to get a push in the
right direction for manually populating the WHOIS database
with enough stuff (user IDs, passwords, etc.) to begin using
the APIs to modify the database?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
