Than what do you call this: ------- [~] antoin@admin> whois -h whois.verisign-grs.net ns1.vianetworks.nl Whois Server Version 1.3 Domain names in the .com, .net, and .org domains can now be registered with many different competing registrars. Go to http://www.internic.net for detailed information. Server Name: NS1.VIANETWORKS.NL Registrar: GANDI Whois Server: whois.gandi.net Referral URL: http://www.gandi.net >>> Last update of whois database: Wed, 29 Aug 2001 02:11:20 EDT <<< The Registry database contains ONLY .COM, .NET, .ORG, .EDU domains and Registrars. ------- And more important, how can this entry be changed and by who ? If for example it would say: Server Name: NS1.VIANETWORKS.NL Registrar: MICROSOFT And I happened to not like Microsoft, and wanted my host to be handled by another registrar, how could I initiate this change ?
