The whois in FreeBSD does all whois servers automatically. The c file
for whois mentions these:
#define NICHOST "whois.crsnic.net"
#define INICHOST "whois.networksolutions.com"
#define DNICHOST "whois.nic.mil"
#define GNICHOST "whois.nic.gov"
#define ANICHOST "whois.arin.net"
#define RNICHOST "whois.ripe.net"
#define PNICHOST "whois.apnic.net"
#define RUNICHOST "whois.ripn.net"
#define MNICHOST "whois.ra.net"
#define QNICHOST_TAIL ".whois-servers.net"
#define SNICHOST "whois.6bone.net"
The thing might compile under Linux perhaps, with some
adjustements? But I am not a coder...
If you are, I can send the full file, if you like. It is not big.
A simple shell script would to then, I assume, to interface it to
httpd.
