Domain Expiry Check Cannot Find Expiration Date

Post by xcentric »

Starting about 3 months ago the .info whois server "whois.afilias.info" now requires a captcha :roll: I am not sure what other whois to use for .info.

Also, all of the domain checks for .com started to fail for the whois.verisign-grs.com server. I tried some others but again do not know which ones support .com. Any suggestions?

captcha? I assume you are using HTTP protocol (web site)?

HostMonitor uses WhoIs protocol, there is no captcha. But unfortunately WhoIs protocol does not specify output format, every server responds differently and sometimes changes reply format. So we have to change HostMonitor code as well.

As I see latest (non-released yet) version works with whois.verisign-grs.com server.
If you send e-mail to support@ks-soft.net, we can provide patch
(you need to install version 10.64 first)
