Will someone please check out my rwhois server?

[Jo Rhett]

Looks like it.  I think I saw this when I first setup my rwhois server, 
where the server was returning a referral along with the original 
response.  In fact, that appears to be the case here.  Look at the 
bottom line of the output.

$ rwhois -vR -s rwhois1.netriver.net 69.46.34.5
Connecting to rwhois1.netriver.net:4321
