Does the nameserver information have to be typed in in all caps or does it matter?
Thanks

I think it doesn't matter

I enter mine all lowercase; it shows up in WHOIS uppercase. I'm pretty sure it doesn't matter how you enter it.

I always play it safe - lowercase for everything :)

It doesn't matter. Whatever you type is converted to uppercase by the registry.

That got me wondering, so I logged into my registrar to check, and they're all in lower case.

So I'd say the whois query is converting them to uppercase.
