Branch: pkgsrc-2007Q2, Version: 2.4, Package name: ripe-whois-tools-2.4, Maintainer: pkgsrc-users

This is a set of C programs to be used in conjunction with the RIPE
database. It contains the following programs:

- whois
The RIPE version of the whois client program.
This is intended for European users as it will query a RIPE whois
server with extended whois capabilities rather than a standard whois
protocol server. The whois program is fully compatible with the
standard whois protocol and can thus replace your default whois
program.

- networkupdate
A program that allows updating the RIPE database with the whois
protocol instead of the usual E-mail interface. This program can
usually only be used by the administrators of the whois server itself.
The updating mechanism is too powerfull (for now) to allow the general
public to use this mechanism. The server is protected by means of an
accesslist.

- cryptpw
Calculate a crypted password with given password and salt.
This password can then be used in the 'auth:' field of maintainer
objects.
