| DNS Anonymity Script
(WhoIs interface)
Discovery Webs servers are
pre-configured with a 'whois.cgi' (commonly known as the DNS anonymity
script or Whois interface) script in your CGI-BIN. This script is
designed to provide your visitors (or potential customers) with a way of
checking out domain name information through the our WhoIs gateway
without knowing where the domain name is hosted. This allows you to
provide domain name lookups without letting anyone (using the Whois
script) know your servers are being hosted on Discovery Webs nameservers
(the Whois script filters out the nameserver information on any queried
domain name, thereby bringing SOME anonymity to the reseller). A
pre-installed WhoIs interface should be located in your '/www/htdocs/'
directory as a file named 'whois.htm'. This script may prove a useful
tool to resellers. |
