Right now, whois is only available to members of the wheel group.  Others 
get a "whois/tcp: unknown service" or something to that effect.

What file is controlling this?  It seems that it's a file that's readable 
by wheel but not others.  If I add a user to wheel, then whois starts 
working for them.

The man page makes no reference to a control file.  Does anyone know what 
it is?
