Try this version of the whois command:

  whois -h whois.networksolutions.com linuxlighthouse.com

which does an explicit pointer to the whois server rather than the
implicit redirect. 

My results are:

whois -h whois.networksolutions.com linuxlighthouse.com

If that doesn't work, do a dig for "whois.networksolutions.com".
