Doesnt stand for anything - just Who Is!
It literally menaas WHOIS a certian domain!
And to get technical in Novell Terms WHOIS is what user you are logged in as! :)
Oh yeah! Who Is...
Thank you
Whois is a database which stores users information registered under different domain name and it also shows wide range of other information about the domain register.Quote:
