Has Internic officially announced that they are only allowing 10 registrations per customer per day or is this another arbitrary change? ObNetops: ip route 198.41.0.0 255.255.255.0 null0 Jeremiah
What? You mean they're limiting the number of registrations any one contact can submit for any one day now? Are they looking at the submitting email or the POC information? If it's the submitting email, what are hosting providers going to do? We send in 8-10 a day, all from the same address. We handle the InterNIC garbage for our clients since, even before they made their sweeping changes, it was a fairly daunting process for the uninitiated.

Simple. Set up one of your domains to map admin.*@example.com to admin.contact@enterzone.net, billing.*@example.com to billing-contact, etc. and just send the e-mail to register foobar.com FROM the fictitious admin contact of, say, admin.foobar.com@example.com. If InterNIC wants to be anal-retentive, let their Contacts database get full, too. And sure you can say "that's abuse, and you shouldn't condone it", but if you think that the speculators aren't going to turn to this very same procedure, you need to lay off the crack pipe.

We send in up to 100 a day for multiple clients, and it is daunting. For some reason if you go to their webpage now, it says you can only register 10 per day. If you try to register the 11th from the same IP address, it rejects you. I'm sure that it will work through email, so we'll just make our own web forms so that our clerical people can continue to handle the registration paperwork. I'm starting to agree with the people who have been complaining about Internic and it's making me cranky. Jeremiah

So now you need to set up a bunch of email aliases, hostmaster001, hostmaster 002, hostmaster003... You might also consider a letter on paper sent via snail mail to your elected senator and congressional rep asking them to get the Dept. of Commerce to put things right. -- Michael Dillon - E-mail: michael@memra.com Check the website for my Internet World articles - http://www.memra.com

I love it! We also need T-shirts that say: Know what you call a Geek in the `90's? I prefer "Sir." ------------------------------------------------------------------ ML.ORG is gone.

woah! Where do you get this idea from? I see that their online form won't let you sign up for more than 10 domains at the same time, but I see no problem with that. Please don't post "oh, is the internic doing this" in a way that sounds like you have some reason to think they are without giving that reason. It leads to rampant speculation on things that probably have nothing to do with reality. I'm not saying they aren't doing this, but I am saying that it is silly to post such a statement without posting a reason to back it up. There are enough real reasons to vilify NSI. At least they increased the maximumum number of records returned from 10 to 50 in response to me asking "so, just how can I see the whois record for usa.net?" but that still, of course, doesn't fix the real problem of it being impossible to do a whois lookup on a domain name by domain name, not handle or company name.
