Whois command

Hi, I want to know data about some IP's. I know that the command whois could help me.
I red that it is available in Mandrake. I have Mandrake 10.0 Official, and when I try to use it the shell answers me:
bash: whois: command not found
If I type man whois, the shell shows me the man page.
Could anybody help me please?. Thank You.

If you want information about "foreign" IP's not on your subnet, check out dig instead...
