Gave that a shot, and I get back the following:
whois problemdomain1.co.uk | egrep -i "Expires.*:|Expiration.*:|Renewal.*:|expir.*date:"
Expiry date: 06-Nov-2016whois okaydomain.co.uk | egrep -i "Expires.*:|Expiration.*:|Renewal.*:|expir.*date:"
Expiry date: 05-Jun-2018whois problemdomain2.uk | egrep -i "Expires.*:|Expiration.*:|Renewal.*:|expir.*date:"
Expiry date: 08-Mar-2017Which I think is the expected result.

It looks like the EXPIRESTRING compilation is empty for those domains:
EXPIRESTRING="
whois $DOMAIN | egrep -i "Expires.*:|Expiration.*:|Renewal.*:|expir.*date:" | head -n 1 | cut -d: -f2- | sed -e's/^[ ]*//'"Try running it manually with the various parts, eg:
whois somedomain.co.uk | egrep -i "Expires.*:|Expiration.*:|Renewal.*:|expir.*date:"
and see that at each pipe point (the '|') it actually returns something. Compare outputs between those domains that work and those that don't. Probably the whois output is different for the domains that don't work and you'll probably need to adjust the above filter.

Hi all.
I have recently added in the dnsreg script from the xymon.com site https://www.xymon.com/xymon-cgi/viewconf.sh?dnsreg All appears to be working well apart from I am getting some strange behaviour for a couple of domains.
For some domains I am simply not receiving any data back, which is causing the test to show red with the following line of information:
Domain somedomain.co.uk expires on
Normally I would see the expiration date here, but it simply doesn't show. I have tested the domain using whois on the server, and this all returns fine. So I'm not too sure why this is happening. Any ideas?
