Re: [ga] the further evolution of...


I have a question. My new hosting company is webhosting.pn and the
nameservers are ns1.webhosting.pn and ns2.webhosting.pn

However, several domain name companies are not allowing you to change to
those nameservers saying they are invalid.

Is this a common problem with companies when using ccTLDs? If so, why?

Enom, which has always provided me good service wouldn't recognize them as
nameservers. GoDaddy did though. Other companies like NameSecure did not
recognize them either.

Any insight as to what the problem is and why would be helpful. Are ccTLDs
like second class citizens?
