Botbay.net
>Environment:

CLI Whois client, whois an Australian domain or IP block.

>Description:

FreeBSD's whois client has an option -p that queries whois.apnic.net.
Information about Australian hosts were once authoritative in apnic, however
they no longer are.  whois.aunic.net is the current authoritative server.
The included patch will enable the -u option to query the AUNIC database.
