whois command doesn't show up-to-date info #56796

Closed gurjeet closed 1 year ago

gurjeet commented 5 years ago

Issue description

Nix's version of whois command is unable to find domain registration details, while the native whois command works just fine.

It has been almost 24 hours since the registration of the domain, so I'd expect any DNS server used by Nix's whois to have been updated by now.

Steps to reproduce

$ hash -r
$ which -a whois
/Users/gurjeetsingh/.nix-profile/bin/whois
/Users/gurjeetsingh/.nix-profile/bin/whois
/usr/bin/whois

$ whois somesite.org
No match for "SOMESITE.ORG".

/cc @fpletz since you are listed as a maintainer on the whois package.

matthewbauer commented 5 years ago

I think this could just be what nameserver it is looking at. The macOS whois and Linux whois (https://github.com/rfc1036/whois). You can get the macOS version in Nixpkgs with:

nix-env -iA nixpkgs.darwin.adv_cmds
gurjeet commented 5 years ago

@matthewbauer, following the POLA, the default behaviour of the packages should be such that the user is not surprised by the behaviour.

BTW, does the command whois somesite.org provide expected result for you when using the Nix version of whois?

Thank you for your contributions.

This has been automatically marked as stale because it has had no activity for 180 days.

If this is still important to you, we ask that you leave a comment below. Your comment can be as simple as "still important to me". This lets people see that at least one person still cares about this. Someone will have to do this at most twice a year if there is no other activity.

Here are suggestions that might help resolve this more quickly:

  1. Search for maintainers and people that previously touched the related code and @ mention them in a comment.
  2. Ask on the NixOS Discourse.
  3. Ask on the #nixos channel on irc.freenode.net.

whois seems to be working for me. There's nothing we can really debug here and it was probably the DNS server having an out-of-date cache or something.
