This is probably best posted to the isp-dns list, but the short answer
to your question is that the register.com whois server only shows
results for domains registered through register.com:
#whois -h whois.register.com hostsec.com

Registrar Name....: Register.com
Registrar Whois...: whois.register.com
Registrar Homepage: http://www.register.com
Domain Name: HOSTSEC.COM
#whois -h whois.register.com allan.org
No match for "allan.org".
Your best bet when searching for domains is to query rs.internic.net,
then query the appropriate registrar.
