SYMPTOMS
When you run Whois Organizations and Lookup IP addresses in the import module, little or no information is returned.



CAUSE
One possible cause is that you are trying to run either of these two features from behind a Proxy server or a firewall. Usage Analyst does not support running either IP resolution or Whois Organizations unless directly connected to the internet.



WORKAROUND
To work around this problem:


 * Establish a direct connection to the Internet by a LAN or dial-up connection.
