Network Solutions and EPP
Since NSI has seen fit to completely obscure any references to providing exiting domain holders with the EPP codes for .com domains now that they're required, does anyone know how to get one from them? Is it a 7 page, notarized, faxed in triplicate form like in the old days, or is it as simple as asking for it? Been absolutely ages since I've had to deal with them and thier procedures (other than obscuring how to leave) has changed considerably since the last time I did this.

You'll be glad to know you don't have to send a gazillion fax forms for that.
Here's what I did to get the code:
1. I logged inside.
2. I clicked on the domain name in question.
3. On the line Domain Protect, I clicked Turn off or Request Authorization Code.
4. I checked the box beside Request Authorization Code and clicked Save.
5. I went inside my mailbox.
Voila! I got the email, opened it, and saw the auth/EPP code.
Don't worry guys, I intend to move my domain name out a month before it expires.

"We're sorry, but our site is temporarily taking no more connections. We are working to resolve this problem, and should have it fixed shortly. Please return later." ...probably 'cause I'm moving the name...Your one stop shop for decentralization

Give them a ring. Should solve your problem on the spot.

The domain I was checking was fully mine (but not the one I need to move), so that's not it, but yes, calling seems to be the way. Thanks, Dave.

Hi,
I'm not up an Network Solutions but since SRSPlus is the Reseller Division perhaps their method for the EPP codes is the same. ?
I had posted the method from SRSPlus Support in a thread about SRSPlus EPP codes at
[http://www.webhostingtalk.com/showth...light=SRSPlus]
I hope you have success.

Finally managed to get this worked out, and started the transfer process. In all, once I submitted the initial request, I've gotten 7 emails from NS (so far), all begging to stay or renew. This latest one really cheeses me off:
This is your official notification from Network Solutions® that the service(s) listed below will be deactivated and deleted if not renewed immediately. Previous notifications have been sent to the Billing Contact assigned to this account. As the Primary Contact, you must renew the
service(s) listed below or it will be deactivated and deleted. Renew Now.

That's OK!
In my last days with BulkRegister I sent them a notice to cancel my Reseller account.
They replied and told me I still had domains. I replied back and told them to update their database. Those domains were transfered out weeks ago. I even gave them a copy of the New Whois.
They replied back a couple days later saying I was correct.
It has been three weeks now and I still can log into my "old account" that was to be closed.

It so happened that many of their data indicates such. So why not?
It's just a matter of what side of the fence you're on. But it so happens I'm on the
same side as you that I wish NS woud die.
