I've been looking for one of those myself. Original was written
by SRI/NSI and was never released in source. It was always
considered proprietary. MHSC is writing one under the DNSO.NET
site, at http://www.dnso.net/projects.htm. Frankly, I'm not sure
that I'd even want to start with NSI's sources, considering the
trouble they're having (SRS/whois integration).
