This seems as if it would match the same as the previous verio regexp. Are there any examples of an ntt netblock record? The regexp needs to be updated accordingly.

Well, it is really hard to read diff in the issue #3. Can you attach to an
issue as a file or email it to me?

After spending quite a nice amount of time with this issue, I figured out this:

$ host rwhois.verio.net
Host rwhois.verio.net not found: 3(NXDOMAIN)
$ 

And Wikipedia says "In early 2000 Verio was sold to NTT" at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Verio thus the WHOIS server needs to be changed from rwhois.verio.net to rwhois.gin.ntt.net simply. The rwhois.gin.ntt.net returns the right results for Verio objects. Patch suggested as part of pull request #17.

Bug: The new regex pattern is identical to the existing Verio pattern:

# Existing (line ~55):
"^!?NET\\(BLK\\)?-VRIO\\(-[A-Z0-9]+\\)+$" = "rwhois.verio.net";

# Added (new):
"^!?NET\\(BLK\\)?-VRIO\\(-[A-Z0-9]+\\)+$" = "rwhois.gin.ntt.net";

Both use the VRIO pattern. Since Verio was acquired by NTT, this duplicate regex means the first match wins and the second is dead code. This should either:

• Replace the existing Verio entry with the NTT one (if NTT's rwhois server has fully taken over), or
• Use a different regex that matches NTT-specific netblock records (e.g. something with NTT instead of VRIO).
