If the root domains is at OpenSRS, let Support know the nameserver names and we can probably use some magic to purge it. I think the process used to handle registered nameservers for domains going into redemption can be used for this. The Registry may not accept a loopback IP, but you could probably use other non-routables like 192.168.1.0 (I'm talking before testing, but just a guess :) -andrewm _______________________________________________ domains-gen mailing list [email protected] http://discuss.tucows.com/mailman/listinfo/domains-gen
