Re: Good Whois Utility???
Hello Everybody, I was wondering does any one have a good Whois utility there using for there site? While it's not CF based, I have been using the GeekTools WHOIS Proxy on my server for quite some time and have been very pleased with it.

Re: Good WHOIS
Look at Lewis Seller's cfx - don't waste your time with those stupid ones that just do a CFHTTP to NetSol's site. Keep in mind that many registrars don't report the dates and whatnot - the only thing you can be guaranteed is the domain name, the name of the registrant, and the DNS servers. - Original Message - From: nagraj [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: CF-Talk [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, January 24, 2002 7:53 AM Subject: Re: Good WHOIS Hi Neil, can you give the URL for whois Engine.I am in need of it Regards Nagaraj - Original Message - From: Neil H.

Re: Good WHOIS
I use Lewis' nicname cfx as well. Until ICANN requires all registrars to return the exact same information, either using a common format or using XML, what you're going to get back is just a large block of text, filled with names, addresses, disclaimers, etc. There are now dozens of registries, each with its own way of formatting the output. There's actually some benefit to the anarchy, though. It makes it much tougher for people to harvest the WHOIS database. Make sure you point the tag at a whois server that will systematically query the registries to find the information, sometimes called a WHOIS Proxy. I've been using whois.geektools.com for years. They'll limit the number of daily queries that you can do (once again, to prevent abuse), but if you ask them politely they may lift the restriction for the IP address of your server.

Re: Good WHOIS
Yep, I'm glad to see the steps taken to fight domain name speculation. Of course, that whole market has gone bust - the Internet economy is in bad shape, so a good domain doesn't guarantee anything, and quality indexes like Google mean you don't need to have a good name to find what you're looking for. - Original Message - From: Jim McAtee [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: CF-Talk [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, January 24, 2002 10:54 AM Subject: Re: Good WHOIS I use Lewis' nicname cfx as well.

Re: Good WHOIS (OT)
Slightly off topic here, I have been trying to find a way to get more than 10 records from a whois lookup on netsol. If you lookup by name (company/person name, not domain) for Microsoft there might be 100 records that match, but you only get 10. I also know that you can use keywords so that do microsoft* will return all domains that start with Microsoft. I could sort of get around the 10 record limit by doing a boolean, like na Microsoft AND do a* and so on down the alphabet, and at least I would get ten domains for each letter of the alphabet.
