Hi Jeremy
Yes it does see the below
[root at uk ~]# geoiplookup ip.ip.ip.ip
GeoIP Country Edition: US, United States
A bummer though, as I have purchased the Maxmind Country edition.
When I did try to install GeoLiteCity.dat I got the error below
file /usr/share/GeoIP/GeoIP.dat from install of
geoip-geolite-2013.04-1.el6.noarch conflicts with file from package
GeoIP-1.4.8-1.el6.x86_64
Is geoip-geolite not provided by maxmind ?
Regards
