Gosh, I wonder if NSI would do an emergency root server update for me. Perhaps it would be a good time to review the Guardian documentation.

Geez... This is too trivial for words. We do SSL authenticated registrations for our normal order processing, using CC transactions. I have always wondered why NSI can't run both SSL and take immediate CC payments for domain-registrations. It's not like they don't have the cash to make this happen. It also wouldn't hurt to setup some ssh-forwarded ports and drop the whole mess behind a firewall either. At 02:56 PM 10/16/98 -0500, Sean Donelan wrote:

Amusingly enough, when I was the CE for a tiny little ISP HQ'd in Dallas and our landlord locked us out, I actually _did_ get NSI to do an emergency push changing out root NS's to our Florida location's machines. I guess it depends on how desparate you sound. Of course, this _was_ 2 years ago. Cheers, -- jra -- Jay R.
