Well, "whois -h whois.networksolutions.com grex.org" returns the right
information.

Well, I tried a whois against whois.crsnic.net and discovered that your
correspondent missed some vital information. Here is what I got:
} coll% \whois -h whois.crsnic.net grex.org
}
} Whois Server Version 1.3
}
} Domain names in the .com and .net domains can now be registered
} with many different competing registrars. Go to http://www.internic.net
} for detailed information.
}
} No match for "GREX.ORG".
}
} >>> Last update of whois database: Wed, 29 Jan 2003 17:32:40 EST <<<
}
} The Registry database contains ONLY .COM, .NET, .EDU domains and
} Registrars.
}
} coll%
That last little bit explains a lot.

If someone has trouble accessing grex.org, have them try cyberspace.org
instead and report if that works. Since they're on different registrars,
that will tell us if it's a registrar problem or something else.

control of all .orgs has moved to a central source... no?

The database was always maintained by a central source, but that central
source just changed.
This doesn't affect the fact that there are multiple *registrars* you can
buy .org domains from.

I mentioned this in the 'bummed' item, but maybe it belongs here, too:
ssh doesn't get the 'birthday' part of the motd.

I have used the Change program (a few months ago) to put polytarp on my do
not write/tel/chat/talk list but I still get tels. Why?

The change program said it was changing my .login file. I don't see polytarp
anywhere in the file.

Then the change program misspoke. What it changes is your .cfonce
file.

"whois" doesn't know about "cyberspace.org" either; the message at the
end does not mention .ORG (as noted in #126). DNS does know about grex.org.
This also works:
whois -h whois.pir.org grex.org
(but it's amazingly slow. Too many spammers harvesting contact info?)

Re: 133
I think if you put "cat /usr/local/lib/motd.birthday" into your
.login file (assuming csh) then you will see the motd.birthday file
even when sshing in. However, you'll then probably see it twice when
telnetting in.

Is there a way I can see the "You have New Mail" message when using ssh?

"whois.geektools.com" works as a whois host for almost all registrars and
TLDs. (Not *quite* all -- there are a few that they can't support for one
reason or another.)

After reading mail with Pine (today and yesterday) I was told No conf. when
I typed bbs or even bbs agora. I then typed q, bbs (same message) and then
j agora. Is this a new feature or did I do something odd?

Also before getting into bbs 'I don't understand mart. Type HELP for help.'
(This was before the (no conf) appeared onscreen. Confusing and possibly
other people are completely lost.

My twit filter is no longer working now. I checked .cfonce and polytarp is
still listed there. I would suspect my own fault except for the no conf
problem at the same time. Or is some other file of mine messed up too?

Might I have messed up .cfonce when I was removing all the redundant copies
of a twit filter? Anyone want to look at it for me, please?

Re #146: Yes, you need to fix your .cfonce, where you apparently got some
inappropriate line-wrapping when you edited it. The following two lines
should be just one:
# responses entered by users: jp2 polytarp realpoly gizmo sarkhel loperbd
mart
The fact that "mart" is by itself on a line explains the message about it.
The following two lines should also be one:
define pager "twit jp2 polytarp realpoly gizmo sarkhel loperbd mart | less
-dE -P 'Press Spacebar for more, or q to quit'

(The first of those pairs is just a comment, but for the second you need (in
joining them) a blank between "less" and "-dE".)
