Silmar, the reason your RBL lookup was wrong is you forgot to reverse
your IP address. So if your IP is 200.181.255.20, your lookup should be
as follows:
nslookup -q=txt 20.255.181.200.country-rirdata.dnsiplists.completewhois.com
Non-authoritative answer:
20.255.181.200.country-rirdata.dnsiplists.completewhois.com
text = "BR - Brazil"
