For want of a better place to ask, I'm wondering if anyone monitoring this list might know what is up with the registro.nic.ve web site. The WHOIS at www.nic.ve refers to that site, and it appears to be down (for me and downforeveryoneorjustme.com too). Doing old fashioned native WHOIS isn't working any better.

This, 450 4.1.1 <dmorales@cnti.gob.ve>: Recipient address rejected: User unknown in local recipient table Did not bode well for success via that channel. Shoulda mentioned that. And I should drop a courtesy note to the admin contact that the technical contact isn't working. Thanks for reminding me.

$ whois -h whois.nic.ve nic.ve Servidor Whois de NIC-Venezuela (.VE) Este servidor contiene informacion autoritativa exclusivamente de dominios .VE Cualquier consulta sobre este servicio, puede hacerla al correo electronico whois@nic.ve ... etc. I get a proper response, anyway. There is no A record in the DNS for ve.whois-servers.net, which is what my client tries first. Perhaps this is where the confusion lies. -- Nathan Ward

Seems to be up now. My WHOIS client is working today and the web site WHOIS is working, so it looks like the site was really just down for a while. Thanks for the response.
