Hi, osmansays,

Thanks for your post.

Yes, Aspose.Network can do the works that you mentioned. We will provide some simple code for your reference.

Thanks

Dear osmansays,

I think you need a WhoIs protocol client in C#. Aspose.Network.WhoIs is what you want.

Check it out.

using Aspose.Netowrk.WhoIs;

[STAThread]
static void Main(string [] args)
{
WhoIsClient client = new WhoIsClient("whois.internic.net");
string answer = client.Query("microsoft.com");
Console.WriteLine(answer);
Console.Read();

}

Here is the http interface, you can query domain in the webpage. Feel free to let me know if you have any problems.
