The whois server is under development and not yet deployed. I'm not up on the progress of that project. The intent was to have it run on the portal, where the registration database is operated so that it can have access to the necessary data.

Brian, The rwhois server project I built has been idle since the next step requires work from your side. (I've added a few blocks at peoples request)
whois -h 44.4.64.10 -p 4321 <ip block in question here>
1) If you can allow the 44.4.64.10 IP SQL access to your db so that I can write the software that can translate whats in the DB into rwhois records that will allow me to populate the server. It doesn't need to reside on the amprgw server for that access.
2) We also need you to add a referral whois entry for the 44/8 block to point to the rwhois server so that anyone who does a whois will ultimately get forwarded to the server to resolve the request.
