Hi Øystein,
I spoke too soon. I still get errors when I try to make NIC-handles looking like this:
ALE1574-ADMIN AK1576-ADM Etc.
My apologies for giving you incorrect advice about the source. The source, if specified, cannot be any random string. It needs to be an actual source, such as "RIPE". This isn't clear in the documentation about nic handles.
So you'll have to use -RIPE for the source (or nothing).

Hi Anand, Øystein, here is the link to the documentation which describes the nic-hdl attribute: https://www.ripe.net/manage-ips-and-asns/db/support/documentation/ripe-datab... The nic-hdl suffix can be an actual source, such as "RIPE", but any 2 letter "officially assigned" ISO3166 country code, or "EU" (exceptionally reserved) is also allowed. Hope this helps.
