bash IP whois lookup script
I have a decent admin script working for checking what IPs are logging on too a web app but I need to make it more fancy with a whois at the start and then I thought a geoip.
At the moment I've hashed out the whois part of it - my problem is that because there are multiple IPs - the whois doesn't know what to do with them
Any ideas on this would be great? and also ideas on geoips would be lovely!
Cheers

Answer
Just use a loop and invoke whois once per iteration
Presuming that your grep returns a newline-delimited list of IP addresses, you could do something like this:
grep ... | sort | uniq | while IFS= read -r ip ; do
whois "$ip" >> whatever
done
