Re: Country<->IP adress

RIPE does not contain all IP's anywhere though. ARIN handles US-based registration (actually, North America, I think), and APNIC handles Asia and the Pacific regions. I believe there are other agencies though I can't recall what they are. No one IP registry contains all of the world's info. Also, the registries may or may not be accurate, although they are probably accurate to within the correct country. Bottom line - trying to implement something like this is not going to be much easier than changing the planet's orbit. It's one of those things you can't realistically accomplish. -dan Previously, Jean-Arthur Silve said: > I tried the ripe whois but it seems it does not contains all IP.. > > when I try whois 216.32.74.50@whois.ripe.net > > I have no entries found.. and this IP is one of yahoo.com... > > jean-arthur > > At 09:32 21/11/00 +0100, Mattias Segerdahl wrote: > >Well, ripe should have an access list of all ip's regged for each country, > >they do it by ip => country basis.. > > > >----- Original Message ----- > >From: "Jean-Arthur Silve" <jeanarthur@eurovox.fr> > >To: <php-general@lists.php.net> > >Sent: Tuesday, November 21, 2000 9:33 AM > >Subject: [PHP] Country<->IP adress > > > > > > > Hi ! > > > > > > Try this site : http://www.showtimeoneline.com > > > > > > When I try to access it From France, Europe, this site replies that only > > > access From US is allowed. > > > > > > How can it do it ?? > > > > > > I use the IP 195.68.105.195 > > > > > > There is no reverse DNS on this IP (no know domaine name attached) > > > > > > > > > If you have an idea, let me know !! > > > > > > jean-arthur > > > ---------------------------------------------------------------- > > > Le simple fait de passer par la fenetre ne suffit pas a la transformer en > >porte. > > > > > > > > > -- > > > PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) > > > To unsubscribe, e-mail: php-general-unsubscribe@lists.php.net > > > For additional commands, e-mail: php-general-help@lists.php.net > > > To contact the list administrators, e-mail: php-list-admin@lists.php.net > > > > > > > > ---------------------------------------------------------------- > Le simple fait de passer par la fenetre ne suffit pas a la transformer en porte. > > > -- > PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) > To unsubscribe, e-mail: php-general-unsubscribe@lists.php.net > For additional commands, e-mail: php-general-help@lists.php.net > To contact the list administrators, e-mail: php-list-admin@lists.php.net > -- Dan Lowe <dan@tangledhelix.com> http://tangledhelix.com/ A computer without sendmail is like a dog without bricks tied to its head. - seen on the Exim users mailing list
