Thanks Charles,
I guess it must have been a registry glitch. I kept incrementing the
registry term down and even at 7 years I was getting the same "Maximum
registration period exceeded" errors. I went and got a cup of coffee,
came back, tried it again at 10 years and it barfed on one of the DNS
servers not being at the .us registry, but not a time-based error so I
was encouraged. I added the nameserver at the registry, tried it again
and it went through. {shrug}
Maybe the registry operator needed some coffee too.
Thanks for checking.
