Re: [anti-abuse-wg] What am I missing in this mnt-by query for MNT-ANONYMOUS?

Hi Suresh,

I tried the two. My whois client is rather elderly but is pretty bog standard, being the one bundled with a stable Linux distro

if you are using an whois client that is not clearly tuned to take care of the specific RIPE DB options you are better off to enclose the query with all it's options in a single quoted comand line parameter such as whois -h whois.ripe.net "-i mnt-by MNT-ANONYMOUS" Ruediger
