I am trying to make a name and IP address change to one of my DNS hosts. The template is filled out correctly and set to modify as opposed to new. Every time I send a template in to NetSol, it comes back:
ERROR: host <newhostname.domain.com> not registered
Is the domain under which this new host lives held at NSI's registrar? I got this same sort of problem a few months ago, and finally I was told by NSI that I cannot make changes to my hosts under tmcs.net using NSI's host template anymore. I must go through the current registrar for tmcs.net, which is Register.com, who was at first confused by what NSI had told me. But they figured out what to do, and made the change appear in the glue from the gTLD servers somehow. But the crsnic registry still shows the old address for c.ns.tmcs.net. So is your new host living under a domain that is held at some other registrar? You may have to go through the registrar for that domain to get a host record entered/changed. None of this makes any sense to me, by the way. It's just another symptom of a broken system if you ask me.
Duah! I know its not registered because I'm trying to update the current host to become the new host. The last time I did this about 7 months ago I had the same problem. I called NetSol and they pushed the change through. Now I have called and spoken to two different agents. They open up a case and say that I'm filling out the form wrong and send me a new form (which I never get). I tried to call back today and their lines are busy.
Anyone have any hints to changing a host NIC record? Besides creating a new host and updating the DNS on ALL the domain names? I'd like to change this host DNS stuff sometime this year.
