Whois

The whois information of a domain name provides various details like registrar, owner, registration date, expiry date etc. The whois information is provided by the corresponding whois servers of the registrars. The first step is to contact whois.iana.org which provides the actual whois server of a domain name. Next the particular whois server is contacted which provides the full whois data of the domain.

Implementation is quite simple and python makes it even simpler.

Run the program by issuing the following command at the terminal.
