There really IS such a key. In most cases the registrar is supposed to issue you one as soon as you register or transfer the domain to some other registrar. Most do it while transfering. I don't see any reason for forfeiting this domain because someone fouled up at NCST! > I had several conversations with them. May be I am > missing some thread.

If you could prove your identity to them over fax/person (Copy of Passport or any Govt Issued ID does), they should still be able to send you the key. Also make sure that you get all email directed to [EMAIL PROTECTED] at least till the time the transfer take place successfully. > last date for transfers. > meanwhile we thought it is safe to have another domain to continue the > work. > OK, It is good to have plan B. I really like the new domain, but breaking already existing links on the Web worries me. It will be nice if we could run on this domain itself.
