Hi Marie-Luise, On 4-Mär-2006 Dr. Marie-Luise Hansen wrote: > But how and where do I change the settings? This depends on what whois client you use. If you use the commandline whois client from RIPE you can just use the new flags on the commandline. If you use an other client it may not be able to "understand" the new flags so maybe you should switch to the RIPE client or use the web interface at: http://www.ripe.net/fcgi-bin/whois?form_type=simple&full_query_string=&sear… (this should be one line) Best regards, Hank

Since when does one need 3 nameservers for inverse?
by Hank Nussbacher 08 Feb '06

08 Feb '06

In the "Reverse Delegation How To": http://www.ripe.net/rs/reverse/reverse_howto.html it states: "NS Servers Ensure you have at least two nameservers that are authoritative for the zone. The resolvable names of these NS servers should be in the NS resource records of the zone. The nameservers should be on different subnets." Yet when I submit a request I get: ***RDNS: (related to set) ERROR (20 points): At least 3 nameservers are required for each properly delegated zone. We found only 2 in your submission. In addition the reverse delegation checker at: http://www.ripe.net/cgi-bin/delcheck/delcheck2.cgi doesn't flag only 2 nameservers as an error. What gives? -Hank

by Shane Kerr 15 Dec '05

15 Dec '05

Dear Colleagues, We will carry out planned maintenance on the Whois server on Monday 19 December from 18:00 to 20:00 CET. During this time, updates to the whois database will not be possible. Updates sent via e-mail will be queued and then processed normally when service returns. Updates via webupdates or syncupdates will fail, and must be re-tried when service returns to normal. During the maintenance we will run hardware diagnostics on the server. We apologise for inconvenience this may cause. If you have any questions, please e-mail: ripe-dbm(a)ripe.net. Regards, Shane Kerr RIPE NCC
