I did send this to OpenSRS support, but did not yet receive an answer, so I thought it might be good to see if others are experiencing this issue.
A customer noticed something strange about email contact changes for INFO domains and I can confirm it happens. Make an email address change to a .INFO domain name, the update seems to take for some period of time. Some period of time later, minutes or hours, the email address resets to the initial value. I can confirm this behavior when making modifications to one of our INFO domains. The domains in question are locked, but the Tucows locking guide states: > The Tucows domain locking feature offers Resellers the ability to lock > domains, which prevents: > > a) Registrar transfer away from Tucows > b) RSP2RSP transfer to another Tucows RSP > c) DNS Management > > If a registrant desires any of the above for a locked name, the name must > first be unlocked. > > Tucows Domain Lock does NOT prevent contact management. So I can only assume that the issue does not have anything to do with locking... Can anyone else confirm problems making email contact changes for INFO domains? -- John Keegan [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://RackShare.com > From: Charles Daminato <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Date: Mon, 2 Sep 2002 22:30:20 -0400 (EDT) > To: John Keegan <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: Re: INFO domains and WHOIS > > .info is authoritative for contact information.
