"Jake Khuon" <khuon at merit.net> writes * While evaluating the whois client and server, I came across something * unexpected. Neither the -m or -M flags produced a route object. Rather, a * router object was reported along with person objects. Was this intended or * is this a bug? Or am I misunderstanding the reasoning behind these results? The answer is probably that there simply is nothing more specific than 193.0.0.0/24 in the database.... Perhaps you meant to do 193.0.0.0/16 or even 193.0.0.0/8 ? -Marten PS with the example below, you are asking for something more specific than the class C network 193.0.0.x and I am very sure that there is nothing in the RIPE database, other than the inet-rtr objects it returned to you.... * #365:<khuon at Espresso>(ttyp1)[~/Projects/whois]% whois -h whois.ripe.net -m 1 * 93.0.0.0/24 * % This
