Hi Nick, The BE registry has very strict whois blocking rules and this is the error that is received from the registry. We are working with the registry to see if they will loosen the rules during the promotion as we expect a significant increase in the number of queries that will be done.
The promotional pricing will be in effect at midnight tonight (EST) until January 31, 2006 Thanks, Greg Frank Associate Product Manager, TLDs Tucows Inc. 416 535 0123 x1282 -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Nick Wilsdon Sent: Monday, October 31, 2005 11:47 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [domains-gen] FREE .be domains I had a couple of questions on the same subject: We are getting an error now on the .be whois registry (whois.dns.be) Excessive querying, grace period of 7777777 seconds I assume that means we've put too much pressure on it with our testing. We tried the Tucows API as well but that is also reporting everything as reserved. 1) Will there be more capacity in place for tomorrow? 2) What time does this all start?
