NAME

       whois.conf - alternative WHOIS servers list for whois client

SYNOPSIS

       /etc/whois.conf

DESCRIPTION

       This file contains a list of WHOIS servers which can augment or override the built-in list of the client.

       It's  a plain text file in ASCII encoding. Each line consists of two fields: a pattern to match WHOIS object identifier and a corresponding
       WHOIS server domain name.

       Fields are separated by non-empty sequence of space or a tabular characters.  A line starting with a hash character is a free  comment  and
       it's not considered.

       The  pattern is case-insensitive extended regular expression if whois client has been compiled with POSIX regular expressions support. Oth-
       erwise, simple case-insensitive suffix comparison against WHOIS object identifier is used.

       Internationalized domain names (IDN) must be specified in ascii-compatible encoding (ACE) format.

EXAMPLE
