Hello,

If the domain is expired but it is still available in the whois
you cannot transfer the domain name :(
The only way to get the domain back into life is, to pay on
the netsol page, they have a link on the top of their navigation bar
"renew domain". Then the expired domain name will be up in a few
days. Later, after the domain is valid again, it is possible to
transfer the domain.

The bad thing on this is, that you first have to pay $29, and then
for the transferred domain $10 too. So it costs $39. If you have lot
domain names, this may be a problem. We queue netsol domains internally,
and before they are due to renewal, we try to make a transfer with the
customer and we support the customer doing the transfer.

Maybe anybody knows another solution, but as far thats what I know.

best regards,
