Also you have to wonder if the web interface only allows 4 nameservers and the mail template or approved agent or whatever allows 6 why does the whois output always list 10 (most of which, obviously, are empty)
I presume that Don wrote the whois spec with reference to the schema rather than e-mail template or web interface, so presumably the register has space for ten. Any agentstrars here who would mind taking charge of a domain for an experiment? I have six authoritative nameservers for patho.gen.nz, but gen.nz only contains NS records for four (since that's all the web interface permits). Test: 1. Transfer patho.gen.nz to new registragent 2. Ask agentstrar to add two additional nameservers to the domain using the e-mail template, making six in total 3. Attempt to change nameservers using web interface as nameholder 4. Observe with interest the results in the gen.nz zone Any takers? All in the interests of science :) Joe --------- To unsubscribe from nznog, send email to majordomo(a)list.waikato.ac.nz where the body of your message reads: unsubscribe nznog
