It depends on the domain and nameserver you're trying to do. Consider the following scenarios:
1) domain exists in .com registry, nameserver does not. You must use the "Registry Nameservers" link in the RWI to "populate" the .com registry with the nameserver before you use it... this works for all combinations (i.e. .info domain, non-.info nameserver; .cc domain, non-.cc nameserver, etc) 2) domain exists in the .com registry, nameserver exists in the .com registry. You must use Manage (https://manage.opensrs.net/) and under the "Nameserver" section is a link (at the bototm of the page) to "create/modify" a nameserver based on your domain. This will create the necessary host. This applies to other combinations (i.e. .biz domain, .biz based nameserver; .net domain, .net based nameserver, etc) Cheers :) Charles Daminato OpenSRS Product Manager Tucows Inc. - [EMAIL PROTECTED] > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Charles Edmunds > Sent: June 18, 2002 12:19 PM > To: 'Discuss-List@Opensrs.
