Instalando um cliente de whois no seu Redhat / CentOS

Sei que muita gente vai achar chatinho algumas dicas que aparecem por aqui mas achei interessante voltar com as famosas dicas rápidas para operação do Linux.

Tentou usar o whois no Fedora / RHEL / Redhat / CentOS / Scientific Linux e ele não deu as caras ? 

# whois 108.162.222.173
-bash: whois: command not found

Não se desespere. Estas versões do Linux  tem um cliente muito bom para este fim , o jwhois ( linha de comando ) e pode ser instalado facilmente utilizando o yum. 

# yum -y install jwhois

Saída do comando : 

# yum install jwhois
