whois.ripe-1-.txt

From PHP I'm opening a socket connection on port 43 on a whois server.

E.g. if someone wants to check if a specific .com is free, I'll connect to the whois server "whois.crsnic.net"
With this server everything is working fine and I get the result.

Now I want to check if a specific .be domain name is free. I woul like to know a working whois server to check that.

Am I clear enough ?
Thanks

I know it's ripe ...
But found out that "whois.ripe.net" doesn't work currently for .be domains.
whois.dns.be is working actually ...

Hi,
I got a small layout from A site:
Just see the link is that Correct?

The IP address information is retrieved by sending a request to the whois server of ARIN. If ARIN doesn't maintain the information about the requested IP address, a second request is sent to the whois server of RIPE, APNIC, LACNIC or AfriNIC.
After the IP address information is retrieved, IPNetInfo analyzes the Whois record and displays it in a table.
Notice: From time to time, the WHOIS server of ARIN is down and doesn't respond to WHOIS requests from IPNetInfo, and thus IPNetinfo fails to retrieve the IP address. When such a thing occurs, simply try again later.
