I am writing a small script to perfrom a 'whois' on number of domains. i however have a slight query.

When i run 'use Net::ParseWhois;'on a particular domain I get the following

Registrar: NETWORK SOLUTIONS, INC.

Tag: xxx

Note that the final line in this code puts record created and updated as 'n/a' and there is no expiry date!!!

...Record expires on 25-Oct-2002. Record created on 24-Oct-1995. Datab

Can anybody tell me how to get the date information using the use Net::ParseWhois; module since it fetches me the results in a more managable form. Or are there any other suggestions?

thankyou
