Re: Domain reseller survey

We use Tucows OpenSRS at my company, The Cyber Design Factory
(http://www.cyberdesignfactory.com).  The test is quite easy to pass
and the service is pretty good I would say.  It's good that you can do
a wide range of domains through the same API, including *.uk, though
it probably is cheaper to go directly through Nominet for those.

We use OpenSRS however we do .UK registrations directly as it's trivially 
easy to interface with Nominet's automaton and cheaper too.

You don't have to run all of their shonky perl. We're going to be resellers
for tucows soon (when I finish my coding), and most of the shonky perl is
written by me and the person who actually owns lusercop.net (who isn't me).

tucows do uk domains and so on, but i believe that you have to take a
cheesy test and run shonky perl.

Domain reseller survey

2003-02-22 Thread Paul Makepeace 
Is anyone else reselling domain names? (Or even ICANN accredited?!) I
recently become a "value added service provider" for BulkRegister and
am poking about with their API. (You can either contact them via
HTTPS POSTs or send XML at a socket. It's nice if only to check
domain availability, and have a programmatic way to change
nameservers en masse.)

Who else provides these kinds of services? In particular BR don't offer
*.uk registrations.
