Re: Fatal Server Error when adding nameserver

Been there many times but using the RWI. :(

The system is excessively picky about the names sever
specification. I have forgotton all the problems / bugs --
I now just copy a previous (successful) registration so I
can avoid the problem..

If memory serves; The problem typically goes away if you
specfiy DNS server in lower case (UDNS1.ULTRADNS.NET &
UDNS2.ULTRADNS.NET are the ones that get me all the time)
and the servers must be valid and specified. For example I
often register .INFO's and then have to manually delete
the DNS servers via the manage interfaces (names that I'm
purchasing for future use but want to avoid having domain
speculators mine the ZONE for and monitor what I'm doing).

I really feel the interface should be more forgiving about
what you enter. Perhap just a warning versus complete
failure. I feel pretty strongly about this as it's very
frustrating to manually enter an order and then have the
entier order lost because of a single typo -- This really
needs to be fixed!
