Hi,  I know this is the BIND list but I’m thinking folks who deal with DNS 
probably may be able to answer this question about whois.

We recently transferred and renewed a domain by 2 years which pushed its 
expiration to 01/25/2025.   The order confirmation shows that expiration and 
looking at the domain at the Registrar’s web site under our account it shows 
that expiration as well.   However, when running whois both here and at the 
Registrar’s site it shows expiration 01/25/2024.  It makes me wonder if there 
is a 10 year limit in whois since 2024 would be within 10 years but 2025 would 
be outside of it.

I didn’t see anything in RFC 3912 describing whois that even suggests a limit 
for expirations dates.

Not a big deal as I may be dead by then either way – just wondering if anyone 
knows of a reason this would occur.

Please don’t suggest I contact the Registrar.  I already did and they seemed as 
clueless as I am.
