The IANA whois server has the right referral information for domain names, IP addresses, and AS numbers, so whois does not need to be able to choose servers itself (except for a few cases where referrals do not work). We can delete a chunk of code, which is always fun. This change improves the referral handling to be less sensitive to all the various formats, and to allow multi-hop referral chains, such as IANA -> registry -> registrar. ARIN queries have the "+" flag added if no flags are present, so we get full details if the query matches multiple objects. The Verisign anti-spam logic is also now suppressed if the user provided a non- trivial query string. Uninformative rubric is now trimmed by default. The -S option turns off trimming, and disables query fettling. The -i option is back to its traditional pre-1999 hostname, since whois.internic.net is more useful than whois.networksolutions.com. Note that the old fallback/default server whois.crsnic.net is an alias for whois.internic.net. The manual is more informative about query syntax.
This is the top level of the FreeBSD source directory. This file was last revised on: $FreeBSD$ For copyright information, please see the file COPYRIGHT in this directory (additional copyright information also exists for some sources in this tree - please see the specific source directories for more information). The Makefile in this directory supports a number of targets for building components (or all) of the FreeBSD source tree. See build(7) and http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/makeworld.html for more information, including setting make(1) variables. The `buildkernel` and `installkernel` targets build and install the kernel and the modules (see below). Please see the top of the Makefile in this directory for more information on the standard build targets and compile-time flags. Building a kernel is a somewhat more involved process. See build(7), config(8), and http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/kernelconfig.html for more information. Note: If you want to build and install the kernel with the `buildkernel` and `installkernel` targets, you might need to build world before. More information is available in the handbook. The kernel configuration files reside in the sys/<arch>/conf sub-directory. GENERIC is the default configuration used in release builds. NOTES contains entries and documentation for all possible devices, not just those commonly used.
