Question

I am using the following Perl module from CPAN Net::Whois::IANA which works well when there are no proxy but when a proxy is needed it fails .

from inspecting its code it using this module IO::Socket::INET to connect . could someone provide how can I add proxy capability to this module ?

Was it helpful?

Solution

There is no such thing as a proxy for all protocols. A proxy is a protocol specific thing and there are different proxies needed for HTTP, SIP etc. As far as I know there is no such thing as a proxy defined for the whois protocol. What kind of proxy do you want to use with whois?
