[Gllug] DNS woes

The general convention is to use gtld's as nameservers rather than
.co.uk's, especially if a gtld will be using the nameserver.
You can create a nameserver host record for gtld's from within the ukreg
control panel, these will then be registered in the opensrs db.

Hi,

I am having some issues with ukreg.com, I recently moved my
si-designs.net
domain name over to them seemingly without problem until it came to
changing
nameservers.

I entered my new nameservers (ns1.si-designs.co.uk ns2.si-designs.co.uk)
in
via the web interface and got an error back "Update Name Server error.
Response Code: 480 Response Text: Command failed: unable to verify
existence
of nameserver ns2.si-designs.co.uk".

I have verified that my nameservers are up and running, I have several
sites
currently running fine.

Google has been of limited aid, the only answer I have come up with is
that
openSRS requires nameservers to be entered into their database but I am
at a
loss as to how to do that.

Any bright ideas most appreciated.

Simon
