If you can't get ICANN to delegate, why not grass roots yourself into the DNS space. :) Or did I miss something adding the .PC domain off the root. too bad they don't speak english or have a reply-able email address. Eric

Hallo!

Some poeple tell us that they can not get any connect to us from out your zone. I try it out and see that some of your rootings are working not correct! Can you please update your DNS-Records with our rootings and zone-information? Here are the data for processing:

----- nic.pc. IN SOA microserv.org. netnic.nic.pc. (2000032201 21600 10800 604800 43200) nic.pc IN A 24.132.37.24 nic.pc IN CNAME thc.tzo.com nic.pc IN NS ns.microserv.org nic.pc IN NS gateway.dynip.com nic.pc MX mail.nic.pc (Preference 100) nic.pc RP admin.nic.pc nic.pc www.nic.pc IN A 24.132.37.24 mail.nic.pc IN A 24.132.37.24 ----- Please enable ROUND ROBIN if your DNS has this feature. If you need or want, it will be no problem for us to share a primary or secondary with you because everyone can reach us better if there are more nameservers.

If you are not the administrative contact for this zone, please forward this message to your HOSTMASTER or ISP.

Greetings, Pierre Nic.PC Administrator
