nameserver not registered with .org peeps?

**twirp** · March 16th, 2008, 12:59 PM

Hmmm...
I have a .org with dreamhost, and I'm trying to change the DNS to that of my server.
I keep getting this error:

Quote:

Error: This has not been registered as a nameserver with the .org registry. Contact the registrar of domain.ext to do so.

The domain.ext's are registered at name cheap and I've done the whole name server registration thing there, and it works with the domains there (but none of them are .org)

One set was created at the end of Feb, another at the beginning of March, another mid-March, and yeah...
Those are all .com and .net

The name servers I've tried are (if someone has a .org that's doing nothing at another register and wants to see if it has the same error):

Quote:

ns1.lost-whisper.com
ns2.lost-whisper.com

ns1.hikayo.net
ns2.hikayo.net

ns1.rtion.net
ns2.rtion.net

asse.rtion.net
inse.rtion.net

So has anyone else had this error, and if so how did you fix it? Or is it just a dream host thing?

Sounds like a dreamhost thing, as long as those dns servers are registered, then there shouldn't me a problem, no matter what TLD is using them (except maybe .is and .de)

Bleh... I don't want to transfer it until much later... It still has like 2 years on it... And the registrar I usually use is 30 cents short of having enough to transfer it and I don't want to put more money into the account...
I'll keep sending in tickets to them until they come up with a solution... No more .org's for me

Sort of...

dreamHost was actually pretty fast about responding. They said that they could switch the DNS for me, but if it's not in the .org registry, the domain name may become inaccessible. I contacted NameCheap, and they don't seem to understand what I'm saying. They tell me it's in the registry, but they only point me to a way to check the .com and .net ones... So I sent in tickets to both of them. Whoever provides a fix first is where I'm registering my next domain :P

I usally just go with godaddy for my domains. They are priced low and even have phone support.

.biz has issues as well, as in usually ns1.anything.biz does not always work, I have one set up with godaddy and it is very erratic.

Network Solutions and GoDaddy don't seem to have any problems with .ORG or .INFO. I moved my companyofvalor.org domain from Network Solutions to GoDaddy and pelicar.info still has a couple years left at Network Solutions.

What about .nu? I'm thinking of getting a .nu at namecheap but do you think there'll be problems?
