Thanks, I went ahead and added a error out. In case anyone else decides to do this, here is one. Just put it after the "my" variables are defined
in the sub lookup subroutine...

    if ($domain =~ /\.name$/) {
 # We don't YET want to handle .name registrations, since they are in pre-reg.
 error_out("<br>Sorry .name lookups are NOT allowed.<br><br>They are in Pre-Registrations, so if you want a pre-registration for .name click <a href=\"https://www.firstratehosting.com/register/cgi-bin/name.cgi\">here</a>.");
 exit;
    }

Just Customize the error out message

Thanks
Richard.

  Write a quick reg_exp from that form to disallow anything.name?

  Or run two OpenSRS.conf - one for the .name pre-reg script, one for your regular stuff - since .name pre-reg is temporary, you don't need a super fancy setup... You can ecen share the same libraries and opensrs directory

    Uhm, I just thought of something. With the reg_system.cgi script,
    and the reg_system.name.cgi script, they both use the OpenSRS.conf file.
    and If the OPENSRS_TLDS_REGEX => has .name in it, then what is to keep people from using
    the reg_system.cgi script to try to register .name domains??

    I tried it, and it did pull up the domain, as "Available".
    How do we stop that from being avialable in the reg_system.cgi, but still available for the .name script?

    Any SIMPLE command to add?

    Thanks
    Richard.
