  • Linux RDAP?

    From Leroy H@3:633/10 to All on Sunday, May 03, 2026 16:12:01
    I tried the whois command on my ".info" domain but it failed. Supposedly, whois is being phased out and replaced by RDAP.

    Is there a Linux client for RDAP? I found "openrdap" but it depends
    on the Go language.

    Are there others?

    That needn?t be an obstacle, Go is easy to install.

    Are there others?

    https://github.com/icann/icann-rdap includes a command-line tool.

    If there?s a prebuilt package available, why should that matter?

    only, for now)
