Bugs on CPAN modules should be reported to their authors and/or
respective RT queues. I am forwarding this to the appropriate address:
bug-Net-Whois@rt.cpan.org.
You may see the current bugs of the distribution here:
http://rt.cpan.org/Dist/Display.html?Queue=Net-Whois
And then you realize that this mistake in docs was already reported: here
http://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=2983
and also in the annotations of the distribution docs:
http://www.annocpan.org/~DHUDES/Net-Whois-1.9/Whois.pm
It seems like you are behind an abandoned module, which is according to
what has been said in the module:
AUTHOR ^
Originally written by Chip Salzenberg (chip@pobox.com) in April of 1997
for Idle Communications, Inc. In September of 1998 Dana Hudes
(dhudes@hudes.org) found this but it was broken and he needed it so he
fixed it. In August, 1999 Dana and Chip agreed to become co-maintainers
of the module. Dana released a new version of Net::Whois to CPAN and
resumed active development.
