Tim,
I have been asked to investigate the possibility of maintaining a local copy of the RIPE database.
I guess the best source of information about operational requirements is the RIPE NCC, by way of ripe-dbm@ripe.net . You have to talk to them anyway (to get your mirror configured, and for (C) issues), so you could do it right at the beginning of your project, I suppose :-) Best regards, _________________________________:_____________________________________ Wilfried Woeber : e-mail: Woeber@CC.UniVie.ac.at UniVie Computer Center - ACOnet : Tel: +43 1 4277 - 140 33 Universitaetsstrasse 7 : Fax: +43 1 4277 - 9 140 A-1010 Vienna, Austria, Europe : RIPE-DB: WW144, PGP keyID 0xF0ACB369 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~:~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
