Hi All In the past nameservers that were not .com .net or .org had to have host records registered with Verisign in order for registries to be able to lookup these records when customers assigned these nameservers to their domain names.
Since November 2002 Verisign seems to have done away with this altogether and 3 host records which we previously had registered are now gone from their database. A lengthy phone call to Verisign did not solve the problem nor answer any of my questions as to why they have done this and what is to be done about it. This does not seem to be causing any serious problems except that some domain registration services do not pick up the IP address of the nameserver and it has to be entered manually, this is because many of these services still seem to be using the old method of checking Verisign's database for a corresponding host record. Anyone with any feedback or help on this please. Regards Mitch
