Wilfried, I'm not 100% sure what the AP is, but let me explain what we have done. We have changed the behaviour of the database so that when you do a "-c" lookup, we return the IRT object in the reply. I thought this was the desired behaviour. You can see it here: http://www.ripe.net/fcgi-bin/whois?-c+193.78.240 It is possible to change the behaviour further, to make "-c" more useful I think. One way of doing this might be to try to find the "best" reply on a "-c" query. So, something like: - Find the closest matching INETNUM/INET6NUM object with "mnt-irt:" - return the INETNUM/INET6NUM object (along with the IRT object) - If there is no INETNUM/INET6NUM, perform a normal lookup Right now you have to do this on the client side. Anyway, we can certainly discuss this at the working group session. -- Shane Kerr RIPE NCC Wilfried Woeber, UniVie/ACOnet wrote: >Thanks to Andre for reminding me about that item! > >I am a tad puzzled, because a DB-WG Action on this reads: > >48.6 RIPE NCC To change DB behaviour to return IRT object > [Complete] > >However, neither the web interface nor the RIPE whois client does >return the irt information.
