Whois is look ups

Post by kendall »

Hello,

I am trying to build my own whois lookup for .com, .net, .org .biz and .info tlds and in
reading up found out that there is alot of different servers to be used in querying domain
tlds. I also understand that queries performed on different servers retrieve results
differently

Can you guys suggest to me the most reliable servers used in querying results in terms of
reliable information and effective results in terms of deseminating the info recieved??

I would think Network Solutions (now operated by Verisign) the most reliable and trusted. Others I have not explored and would also be interested in hearing about myself.
