Hi, I have a local RIPE DB installed successfully. Have also created person and role objects, however not able create mntner objects using e-mail submissions. Keep getting reply saying it should be created manually. No luck going through the documentation. Can someone please point to the right info if I have missed or let me know what manual steps need to be taken.

You can specify either a override password or pgp key in the password file. But the easiest way, that also simply works is to create a gzipped sample.db.gz into /var/tmp/load/<registry> and then use the make_db or load_all.sh scripts to load them into the database, basically bootstrapping it with something useful.
