Re: WHOIS Strangeness

I see what it is. For some reason I'm getting a response back from Tucows of "Can't get information on non-local domain" on a domain that doesn't exist. Typically, we were only seeing that response on .tv domains, so we were set to respond assuming that's what it was. -Mark ----- Original Message ----- From: Charles Daminato To: Mark Petersen ; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, May 31, 2002 11:10 AM Subject: RE: WHOIS Strangeness I'd have to see how your whois server works ...   Charles Daminato OpenSRS Product Manager Tucows Inc. - [EMAIL PROTECTED] -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Mark Petersen Sent: May 31, 2002 1:56 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: WHOIS Strangeness Hi, I just got word that when a WHOIS search is done from our site against the Tucows server, *.com lookups return the .tv error message about not being able to lookup .tv domains that weren't registered via OpenSRS. Anyone else seeing this? I tried it, and sure enough... ==================================================================== Planet Nic is unable to query for information on .tv domains that were not registered via either Planet Nic or Tucows, inc.
