Hello DB-WG,

i need to do some changes in the Webupdates.pm can you give me a hint ?

..if i create a new "inetnum" object via the webupdate.pl i got this template to fill my data into. But now i need a special field called "assigned". Is there a way to put this field into the inetnum template ? ...i was searching in the Webupdates.pm for an array that holds all the "Add New Field" fields, but i didnt find someone.

hopefully you can give me some tips where i can add this field.

best regards

Michael

Dear Michael The list of attributes to add using the webupdates form is generated from the syntax xml files in the whois server code. This is done by the perl RPSL object library, Net::Whois::RIPE::RPSL. To add a new attribute as you suggested will require a change to the overall syntax scheme. It is not possible to just add a new attribute to the webupdates form. While we can offer some support to users wishing to install and run the RIPE Database code, on a best effort basis, we don't have the resources to assist with customising it beyond giving some pointers on where to look. I hope this will be of some help to you. Regards Denis Walker Database Group RIPE NCC
