Hi everybody !
I'm a newbie in working with a whoisserver, and I can't start it, i get errors

I have compiled and installed whoisserve-3.3.0 ,from RIPE site, under Fedora Core 5.
#./build.sh --prefix=/opt/whoisd --disable-xmltest --disable-xslttest
everything worked fine.


But when I run to make the sample database I get errors.

In files rip.conf.sample and sources.config.sample I have configured the following lines:
in rip.conf.smaple

RIPADMIN  xmachine.fedora,3306,root,hello,RIPADMIN

and in  sources.conf.sample

DATABASE     SAMPLEDB
host:         xmachine.fedora
port:        3306
trx_support: n
user:         root
password:    hello
/DATABASE


[root@xmachine bin]# ./make_db -c /opt/whois/conf/rip.config.sample -s SAMPLE -1
sqlhost=xmachine.fedora sqlport=3306 sqluser=root sqlpswd=hello sqldbname=SAMPLEDB
npasses=1
