Hello,

I have a question about the domain availability lookop
for .CN domains.
If I lookup a domain name I get this result:

 "No Registry Agents to service domain: [xxxx.com.cn] (Supplier Unavailable)"

I understand this, because the registry is not live yet.
But what happens if anybody likes to pre-register a domain name,
which one is already taken?

Because the CNNIC has already names, registered by chinese.

Did I do something wrong with the lookup,
or do I have to do lookup the availability by doing a whois
request in the meantime till the registry is live?
