Title: Daily Tests
Post by: sujiths80 on January 01, 2013, 02:57:14 PM
Hi,

I am not able to do the below daily tests.

Submit an IPv6 DIG AAAA
Submit an IPv6 DIG PTR
Submit an IPv6 Whois

Any Suggestions to clear the tests are welcome.I am using Windows 7 OS and I installed the whois utitilty from sysinternals.com.When I am giving the domain name ,it is giving me a proper output but when I give the IPv6 address ,I am getting the output as given below

C:\Users\Admin>whois 2001:4860:4001:800::1010

Whois v1.11 - Domain information lookup utility
Sysinternals - www.sysinternals.com
Copyright (C) 2005-2012 Mark Russinovich


Usage: whois [-v] domainname [whois.server]
-v   Print whois information for referrals

Can you please let me know how can I resolve this.

What are you actually pasting into the box where you submit the whois output?

I don't know if that version works anything like the standard version. Maybe it will work if you just tell it which server to query. Otherwise I guess cygwin comes with a whois command that is much closer to the standard version.
