    Update nameserver IPs with netsol

    Has anybody any idea how we can update the nameserver IPs with netsol?
    The domain for the NS is not registered through them (obviously) and any efforts to contact their support staff have met with the usual "I'll send you this completely irrelevant reply, as I hate my job"

    Any tips would be appreciated.

    The domain we use for our nameservers is not with netsol ie. ns.blacknightsolutions.com and ns2.blacknightsolutions.com
    which is based on blacknightsolutions.com

    For some stupid reason the whois details of any client domains registered through netsol point at the old IP addresses for the nameservers even though we changed them months ago.

    I know the domains will resolve. That isn't the issue.

    It looks messy and unprofessional.

    Yes that is true.
    It does not matter what NetSol has in their whois information. That is just a pretty way of showing all of the information and it is often wrong.

    All that matters is that your registrar has the correct information when you registered your name server (or changed your IP).
    They should contact the regstry and update the A records for the root name servers for your domain extension. Because that is all that matters anyway. Since those are the records returned in the glue records (know where to look for your name servers).

    Netsol has a bad habit of not always updating their WHOIS records. They have implemented a certain level of security measures for just checking the ownership of a domain. Their entire system needs a rewrite in my opinion. I hate working with NetSol, but I do have a couple of domains there and those clients don't want to transfer to another registrar.

    As long as it shows up clear at one of these sites, as well as your registar, there should be no problem: www.dnsstuff.com

    Most people that I know of don't even use NetSol to check WHOIS records on domains.
