Here is a new port, jwhois. Jwhois is yet another WHOIS client such as whois(1). However, jwhois has a cool feature such as query-based server selection, cacheing, and query redirection. If you are system/network administrator and often use whois(1) to check domainname, IP address, NIC handles... jwhois will be your nice friend. How-To-Repeat: Attached below is a shar-file of this port. Please consult and import to our repository. There is one thing to be considerd. Can we use ${PREFIX}/var/jwhois as a directory for query-cache file? Here is a summary of the characteristics of query-cache file: - ${PREFIX}/var/jwhois is empty at first (no default file) - If you sent a query first, ${PREFIX}/var/jwhois/jwhois.db will be appeared. Note that the file is not a *DB* file, just a *DBM* file. - jwhois.db should be written from anybody; shared by all users. I have no idea how to treat the cache file. If you committers have some better idea, feel free to modify my ports.
State Changed From-To: open->closed Committed. Thanks!
