why it can not find the correct result when querying?

[liyanling]

 Thanks a lot!

But I think our data are ok. And I did copy the config and sample txt files and modified them(use gawk to handle the network class data).

In addition, since I can did did rwhois_indexer correctly, I think the data are correct in syntax. And the queries work well in some records, although it find nothing when encountering other records which still be indexed in index file. So I don't know what problems with our data.

Let me give an example to describe my question--we have one record in Class Network, which the IP-Network value is "202.112.3.0/24", and there is a record "5234:0:0:26:202.112.3.0/24" "in index-cidr-0.ndx" , but when I query for 202.112.3.23, it will respond "No object"-- how can I fix the problem?

Thanks again!:)
