# PLUGIN: HostInfo

Awstats can use a module named 'hostinfo'

The perl module, Net::XWhois however is no longer in portage.

# PARAMETERS: None
# DESCRIPTION: Add a column into host chart with a link to open a popup window that shows
# info on host (like whois records).
#
#LoadPlugin="hostinfo"


Reproducible: Always

There isn't much to do given the reason for removing Net-XWhois was that it is unmaintained and broken.
