[registrars] Access to nameservers recognized by .org

["Robert F. Connelly" <rconnell@psi-japan.com>]

Dear Bruce:

We at PSI-Japan are very unhappy with the way nameservers are handled by
PIR.

I am copying this Email to the RC list as I am sure others are having
difficulties with the PIR nameserver procedures.

I asked this question before, but obviously did not get authoritative
information.

1. For .com and .net nameservers, I could go to the Verisign-rgs whois
web site and enter a nameserver name or IP address, click on the radio
button for nameserver and determine whether Verisign-GRS recognized the
nameserver.  

2. I can still do that for a .org nameserver which was previously
recognized by Verisign-grs.  Here is a printscreen of such an
inquiry:

3. Bod is telling me the only way I can determine whether a non .org
nameserver (e.g. .com, .net, ccTLD) is recognized by PIR is to fiddle
around with login and password to get into the PIR /admin
service.

That is just plain unsatisfactory.

Our staff in Japan is having fits with assisting customers with DNS
changes in PIR.  The system is just plain unsatisfactory;-(  I
think you know I'm thinking in much stronger words!!!

I await your call at +1.702.616.6019 or +1.702.616.9137.
