Phil et al. Perhaps I'm off base here, but I thought this was the concept of using shared whois. "The first step in this process is to verify the utilization of at least 80% of the prior allocations. The methods available to show this utilization are SWIP and RWHOIS for ISPs who have assigned addresses to their clients." If you have a FreeBSD system you can install rwhois from the ports collection. See below for example output. Phil Howard wrote: > > Roeland M.J.
