Domain management openraster.org
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

Hi,

We need to make a change to the nameservers of openraster.org. I can't be 100% sure, but I think the domain is not under our direct control, but might be under control of one of you?

Can you confirm that? I can provide the new nameservers which you can set at your provider if you have control.

Yes, I think it is. Or rather, irina@krita.org manages the domains. I'm travelling today, but if you add the new nameservers to this task, I'll notify her.

The nameservers which you can use are as follows:

pns31.cloudns.net
pns32.cloudns.net
pns33.cloudns.net
pns34.cloudns.net

I'm wondering whether it would make sense to transfer the domain to KDE e.V., and if so, how to do that.

Yes, I think the best way forward is to ask the board if they want to take over this domain name.

If they agree to that, we can transfer the domain with a authorisation code you can get from your current registrar and some approval mails.

Could you make the nameserver change though?

Yes,. the nameserver change has been made.

You may need to double check that the change has gone through, as it looks like OpenRaster.org is still pointed at the old name servers:

Hm.... Domeindirect, the provider, told us it could take up to 24 or 48 hours to propagate.

Well, to propagate, it is crucial there is something to propogate:

http://leafdns.com/index.cgi?testid=451DBC52

and

https://mxtoolbox.com/SuperTool.aspx?action=whois%3aopenraster.org&run=networktools

show the change has not been made. So their connection to openprovider (where the domain is actually registered) is broken or they process it manually at some point.

Weird... I've now made the changes for a second time.

Thanks. All worked out this time.
