My suggestion may sound a bit harsh. Use a decent registrar. I'm quite happy with discountdomainregistry.com. My host records are updated within a matter of minutes on their whois servers, and with the next day's update at about 11am EST on the masters. Honestly, I can't understand why anyone still uses NSI or NetSol or .... Matthew Devney On Thu, 8 Mar 2001, Andy Ellifson wrote:

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
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.
