Hi,
A new service available through InterNIC allows you to sumit
information changes through them.
"All accredited registrars have agreed with ICANN to obtain contact
information from registrants, to provide it publicly by a Whois
service, and to investigate and correct any reported inaccuracies in
contact information for domain names registered through them."
Whois Data Problem Report
http://www.internic.net/cgi/rpt_whois/rpt.cgi
Information submitted through this form will be forwarded to the
registrar that has your account and changed on "the big who is." :-)
search terms: internic whois modify change information
This is quite an improvement over having to contact individual
registrars.
Hope this helps...

Thanks for the link and the quick response. The link took me to a
form and asked only 3 things...the name of my url, my name, and my
email addy. I suppose they then contact me via e mail to get the
updated information?

Hi,
No. When you put the info in they pop up a new form that has the
different sections of the form and you'll need to tic (check off) the
correct fields - say name and email... in each of the places you want
them corrected. When you sumbit that form it gets passed on to your
domain registrar and you'll get an email verification.
I assume that the email verifies that you really are who you say you
are and have authority to change the domain info :=)

Thanks for the link...but it does not work for me, like you say it
will : (
It does not bring up the screen you mentioned...only the following
sentence,,"Only domains of the form name.tld (where "tld" is com, net
or org) are allowed.
For technical assistance with this problem report form, please send
email to webmaster@internic.net.
My domain is a .com...so I don't know what to make of this. Very
frustrating...any advice?

(Why do I knwothat you are going to say that I should contact the
webmaster.)

Are you entering the domain as "DomainName.com"? All I can think of is
that perhaps you are not putting the .com in?

No...it's broken. I've shown it to a handfull of people who tried it
as well with the same results. Found where I could change it on the
Big Who is...and decided to do it there. Thanks for your time.

That's really strange. I used it to do a change yesterday and it
worked fine. I received the email confirming that the change was being
processed.
Could be a browser incompatibility? Which browser were you using?
Let me know and I'll shoot them an email advising them of the problem.
Wonderful service, but not if it doesn't work for everyone!

Here's another funny thing...I tried to notify the webmaster from the
contact info on that page...and later had it returned.
To answer your other question...I was using the new msn browser. I
really think it (the submit page) was messed up as my webmaster.
myself, mywife and a friend all took a look at it and could not get it
to work.
It's really no big deal, and I thank you for pointing me in the right
direction:)
Cheers
Al

know if it gets any attention.
