Sorry, what I meant to say by "propagate" was that the change of registrar has not propagated to network solutions' whois yet (they still reflected that they were the registrar for the domain, but they were not). I know that OpenSRS is the authoritative registrar for this domain name now, but I've been waiting for Netsol to show that as well. Which is why I 've been checking the whois at both. I note Jo's point that Netsol may never propagate, thanks. > > Is this always the case during a registrar transfer? for netsol to >change > > the registrant NAME, there had to be a RNCA process, which included a > > notarized form. > >You just said netsol DID NOT change the registrant name.

I understand that they are no longer authoritative for this domain name. Apologies for asking about this and thanks for all answers -it's a bit of a surprise to me and I'm glad to learn of it. I also agree with David Sanchez's points on this. It seems like a bit of a loophole (just an opinion). However, it is also a welcome feature in many ways - we've had clients whose domain name registrant information needed to change because of company name changes, transfer of ownership, improper registration in the first place by web designers, etc, and the RNCA process was so tedious to them that they never went through with it. I suppose when that new change proposed by Chuck happens (being able to see the old and new whois information before approving the transfer) that will help balance things out a bit. _________________________________________________________________ MSN Photos is the easiest way to share and print your photos: http://photos.msn.com/support/worldwide.aspx
