Post by thread:Using whois (was Re: Maxim Site)

That's becuase there are two "handles" under maxim-ic.com. The whois server wants to know which one you are refereing too. MAXIM-IC-HST, or MAXIM-IC-DOM. To single out one of the records use whois like this: whois !maxim-ic-dom OR whois !maxim-ic-hst And it'll give you the correct information about each one.

Of course you are right. It's been a loooong week :-) Should be more careful, though, before posting misleading info like that to the world. I apologize for the misinformation. I promise to be more careful next time :-) Philip Restuccia philip.restucciaKILLspamperi.com
