the whois command in c6 references whois.v6nic.net for ip addresses in the 43.0.0.0/8 range (and maybe others). v6nic is no longer a valid whois server, any nets delegated to it should instead be delegated to apnic.
The distribution jwhosis.conf is hopelessly out-of-date. You can retrieve an up-to-date one from:
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jodrell/jwhois/master/example/jwhois.conf
hmm, i replace that .conf file and I still get...
$ jwhois 43.255.100.100 [Querying whois.v6nic.net] [whois.v6nic.net: Name or service not known] [Unable to connect to remote host]
do I need to compile it or something?
