Q:Can I transfer TV domains from other OpenSRS Resellers? | |
A:Yes. You can transfer a .TV domain by completing the Transfer Form in the RWI. Be sure to enter the transfer authorization code in the AuthCode for EPP domains field. The transfer authorization code or 'authcode' is created at the time of registration and can be obtained from the current registrar for the domain. The authcode can be found in the Domain Extras section of the Manage Interface - https://manage.opensrs.net. Resellers can also email the authcode to the admin contact email address listed for the domain. (Log into the RWI, enter the domain name in the View Domain field, and click on the Query button. On the next page you'll find a link to send out the information.) | |

Q:How can I send out a domain username/password? | |
A:RSPs have the ability to send out the domain username/password to the listed Admin Email contact. In the "Domain Management" section of the Resellers web page, find the domain in question. You can use either the "View Domain" or "Search Domains" link. The link to send the login/password is at the very bottom of the Domain info. It also shows you the address that it will be sent to. ca domains will also have a link to send the CIRA password. Only domain owners have access to this info. Since this is the only way to recover a lost password, please make sure the Admin Email is kept up-to-date. If the admin contact email address is no longer valid, the listed domain owner must send us a signed fax on company letterhead, if possible, requesting that the address be updated. In the fax be sure that they include a copy of their government issued photo ID (Drivers License, Passport etc), the domain name and the new admin contact email address. Please have them fax it to 1-416-531-2516 ATTN: OpenSRS Support For the registrants convience, we have created a pre-made PDF form that can be used as a template. You can find the form at http://rrc.tucows.com/resources/docs/adminemailchange.pdf | |
