 | View Full Version : transfer auth code vEr5e 10-23-2005, 02:19 PM to do a transfer of domain, i need the auth code from the present registrar. is this auth code sent to the present registrar only when i do a transfer, or the present registrar already has this auth code(like a domain password or something alike?) even i don't do any thing? starke1120 10-23-2005, 05:14 PM I think you should have been sent an auth code by your current registar once the admin of the current domain at the current registar approved the domain transfer. Dave Zan 10-23-2005, 06:18 PM Get the auth code from your current registrar, then give it to the new registrar when starting your transfer request. Don't forget to ensure your domain's unlocked and admin email's still good, of course. ;) vEr5e 10-24-2005, 12:19 AM Originally posted by davezan Get the auth code from your current registrar, then give it to the new registrar when starting your transfer request.

Thats true. EPP / Auth Codes are needed for .org / .us / .biz / .info domains and you can get it from your registrar anytime. vEr5e 10-24-2005, 08:23 AM Thanks. What does EPP stands for by the way? dmaven 10-24-2005, 12:42 PM Extensible Provisioning Protocol vEr5e 10-24-2005, 12:49 PM sounds intricate to me... :p dmaven 10-24-2005, 04:36 PM Originally posted by vEr5e sounds intricate to me... :p This is more the platform that registrars speak to the registries with Dave Zan 10-24-2005, 06:34 PM EPP...auth code...transfer secret...just stick to one simple term people can understand, for goodness sakes! :D dmaven 10-24-2005, 07:08 PM Originally posted by davezan EPP...auth code...transfer secret...just stick to one simple term people can understand, for goodness sakes! :D auth code is one that makes the most sense vEr5e 10-24-2005, 07:59 PM yea auth code seems to tell it all. thanks guys! :D dmaven 10-25-2005, 08:51 AM Originally posted by vEr5e yea auth code seems to tell it all. thanks guys! :D I agree |
