Registrars again

Yesterday I wrote about some trouble a friend of me had registering a new domain and even I’ve tried to help we ended up in giving up yesterday.

Today now I had again a closer look and it was really interesting for me figuring out about the necessary info within all those French stuff on the registrars’ pages. Sadly me not speaking one word in French language, but with enough will and time there is a way through everything.

Now finally it even looks like I have to excuse the registrar as for it wasn’t their service causing us trouble. After nearly an hour looking in it, I found out about some tiny little differences between both nameservers of the hosting business and as the last and final main issue, a wrong set domain responsible email addy within the SOA information of the DNS.

It’s for sure some mystery how it comes that values you do not even have to specify and normally should get filled and pointing to your hosting provider can be wrong. Especially when the get set and some automatism. But with luck I was able to fix it within the reseller package of the hosting business myself and just a few minutes later the registrars’ pages accepted the change.

Things can turn out soooooooooooooo simple, when you finally have figure them out. :-)
