Hi,

I suspect that works because you are asking a LACNIC whois server for an
IP in its own database, so it's not having to contact RIPE's whois,
where the rejection seems to be coming from.

That works for me on Debian 11, I assume because by disabling recursive
lookups the LACNIC server is not doing as many queries to RIPE.

I don't need -r on Debian 12 whois for that query.

Thanks,
Andy
