I went through this with NetSol a while ago. It's a pain in the neck, but they will get it done, eventually. First you have to call them and sit on hold and get transfered for about 3 days, and get a list of all domains which use this nameserver. Then, you send them a fax on letterhead saying that those domains were never authorized to use that nameserver, etc, etc, etc. Eventually, your nameserver will be removed from those domains and you can then delete it. Whole process ended up taking about 2 months for me. Jeff On Tue, Jan 14, 2003 at 10:54:31PM -0800, Adam McKenna wrote:

I have IP address space. An address in that address space is listed as a host record for a fair number of domains that are not mine. Hence, DNS requests come to that address. But I cannot delete the host record, because there are domains using it.
Is there a magic contact somewhere at Network Solutions that can fix this?
Is there really an appreciable amount of traffic being caused by this?
Anyway, only your registrar can delete host records. If Network Solutions is your registrar, then they can do it. If they refuse (due to the host being in use), then your best bet might be to change it to another address, possibly one you've null routed.
