Connecting to the ARIN Whois server via telnet works like so:
telnet whois.arin.net 43
Once connected, getting information about an IP address is equally trivial:
n 119.194.24.35
A lot of information is shown about this specific IP including Country, etc. However, with the following IP address, I get very little information:
n 216.172.138.91
Why does this query show me so little information unlike the first one? How do I attain the same level of detail about an IP as the first when I get minimal answers such as this?
Note: I am not interested in any utility that will show me this information. I am only interested in more information about manual retrieval using telnet as my only interface.
