According to Whois:
- Country, region, city: EU (Region, City is not part of the whois)
- ASN, ISP: AS205365, "Matthias Fetzer"
According to old db:
- Country, region, city: null, null, null
- ASN, ISP: AS205365, "Matthias Fetzer"
According to new db:
- Country, region, city: Ukraine, Odessa, Odessa
- ASN, ISP: AS205365, "FETZER"
--------------
The new database is correct, regarding the physical location. The server
is indeed running in Odessa, Ukraine. The allocation (before it was
transfered to me) has been registered to Odessa, Ukraine before. So I am
not sure if the new database uses old data (instead of "no data", which
the old db did), or if they actually process traceroutes in order to
determine the location.
As the officially registration states "EU" as the Country, I would
actually expect it to be determined as "EU".
