From the list replies and the private replies I've received, I think I have a clear understanding of how this works now. One thing I forgot to mention was that the domain is a .ORG, which makes a big difference. Anyway, as I said, thanks for your replies. I think I can take care of the transfer now.

Fw: German KK-applications and domain transfers
This is wrong. Not the one who wants the domain have to fill up a KK, but the one who sells it have to. This KK-application have to be sent by the domainseller (admin-c) to the his isp, so they (isp) know there will be someone other trying to order this domain and they (isp) have to agree. And yes, it is necessary. Elsewhere the actual isp - who is tech-c (i think) - wont give this domain free. More infos can be found at www.denic.de (english too).

Thanks The procedure for .de domain transfers is: - the wannabe domain holder (or his registrar) instructs a DENIC member (list on http://www.denic.de/doc/DENIC/mitglieder.en.shtml) to start a KK for the domain in question, including new admin,tech and zone contacts and at least two (already setup) authoritative name servers - the current DENIC member gets a notification for that, and has to agree or disagree (KK ACK or KK NACK) within some working days. It should only ACK if it has a cancellation notice or clearance from their current customer (the domain admin) - if denic gets ACK, the domain is updated So these steps are neccessary to transfer a .de domain: (1) the current domain holder instructs the DENIC member which is currently maintaining the domain that new maintaining DENIC member will issue an KK and that they shoudl ack that (2) you (or your registrar) set up at least two authoritative name servers for the domain (3) you request the transfer with your registrar (which, if not a DENIC member, in turn requests it to a DENIC member) (4) the current maintaining DENIC member will ACK (if [1] was ok) (5) You're done (within ~1 week if everything goes fine) Thomas
Re: German KK-applications and domain transfers
problem that may come up is that denic (german domain registry) needs the administrative contact to be someone in germany which throws some obstacles at registering a domain from foreign countries without having a german department or at least someone that will take care of the domain and give his name to be responsible... greets, jan - Original Message - From: Thomas Lamy [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: 'Cameron Moore' [EMAIL PROTECTED]; debian-isp@lists.debian.org Sent: Saturday, May 24, 2003 10:23 PM Subject: Re: German KK-applications and domain transfers Cameron Moore wrote: This is a little off-topic, but I figure someone here has to know this.

No, you normally fill out a KK form for transfering a domain to a new host. Changing the owner at the same time is normally to difficult. So I would propose: Well the original owner (German) to change the owner to your customer (with address etc.) and then your client can initiate a transfer of the domain since he is the new owner. The KK simply outlines please transfer domain kjahaskdh.de owned by me (Peter Paul Something), living at kjhkashdkjh currently connected to the DNS at XXX to the company YYY which will take over the domain in a few days. Send this form to the company currently servicing the DNS for that domain so that he knows to whom the domain will be transfered and that he will allow the transfer to take place. Then you can easily request the domain-transfer. If you have further questions simply ask. Hope my explanations were not too difficult to figure out :-) Stefan
