hi folks! and a happy new year.

me and a friend own a lots of domains on our hosting-ISP. most of them were bought two years ago. i'm coming from germany, it's normal here that a TLD must be taken for one year min. the last year i started buisness with my friend and now we want to change the admin-c to our buisness.

but how is this done? if i talk to our isp, he says we have to cancel them all and then take them back in. but that's a too complicated way. there should be a way that the admin c can update his/her entry in the NIC, isn't it? i just wanted to ask here for ideas, before i talk again with my ISP.

Your domains will be registered with a Registrar, not with your ISP, unless of course your ISP is also your Registrar like goDaddy.com. Some ISPs have reseller arrangements with Registrars which can also confuse things a little.

You need to find who your ISP is by doing a whois search [whois.net] on your domains and then logging into your Registrar to alter whatever you want.

hi Woz. Thanks for your response. I try to figure that out. I think in my case my Hoster is also registrar. he owns the nameserver for example etc.

Running a name server for a domain has nothing to do with whom it is registered with.

Sometimes they are the same. Sometimes not.

ISP can be Registrator
ISP usually runs name servers

Isn't it?

Good thing about this board is, that people will correct me if I am wrong ...

yeah you're right. what i meant is, the hoster did all the stuff for me. i checked that i'm the domain owner, so it's my right to change the domain ownership.
