Hey Guys,
Not sure where was the best place to post this.
So I have been looking at a few domains recently that I wanted to purchase that were due to drop. But I couldn't put a value on them and did not want to backorder them. I am not yet a Nominet member so I made a script that checks if the domain is registered or not, and if it becomes avaiable I get an email to tell me to go register it.
you can download the script from https://github.com/kurtisme/domain-stuff its called domainscan.sh
you just need to change the email address to your own, then add a cron job on your server to run it every X mins. I have
*/10 * * * * ~/domainscan.sh DOMAIN
and it runs every 10 mins.
Hope someone gets some use of it.
