Hi Paul, the following will update all domains that were registered between the two dates:

filter: created >= '20070612' and created <= '20070617'
update: nservers = [ 'ns1.nameserver.co.uk','ns3.nameserver.co.uk' ]

Thats the same command I was using before the upgrade and it still works.

hi grant

cheers for that but what if i only want to do say 50 (specific) domains

Hmm, bit of a guess but you could try:

filter: key = 'domain1.co.uk' and key = 'domain2co.uk and key = 'domain3.org.uk'
update: nservers = [ 'ns1.nameserver.co.uk','ns3.nameserver.co.uk' ]

Bit of a pain in the ass listing 50 domains in there though!

thanks grant, yes nominet are a pain in the arse at times. i heard that nominet are doing an online system so you can change domain details on the online system, has anyone heard about this?

Hi Paul,

I think that is only to update registration details and nothing to do with actual updates to a domain - ie nameservers..

Although as part of the new transfers, they are including TAG= so nominet change that with the transfer.

filter: key = 'domain1.co.uk' and key = 'domain2co.uk and key = 'domain3.org.uk'
update: nservers = [ 'ns1.nameserver.co.uk','ns3.nameserver.co.uk' ]

Those would have to be be 'or's, not 'and's.
