I did a search for fphcbigblue.com and was notified that it was available. I did the purchase thru BV. I published (did the addon, etc.) and just to see what happened, I typed the URL into FireFox and got a website about condo rentals. Some help please.

Who is doesn't even have info on your domain. Probably, this (italian) site owner has bitten you for just a day or two.

Hmmm, I did do a search on BV for the domain name. Was notified it was available, paid my money. What's the next step?
Now I will have to change all of those links....bummer

Yes, unfortunately if he made it in getting the domain name before you, you will probably haver to change it in .net, or .info or something like that

I would guess that M will have to help me with the payment part of the problem?

WHOIS indicates that fphcbigblue.org and fphc-bigblue.com are available. This is an informational website for my handball club. I started playing in 1968 and play 3-5 days a week.

Hi Terry,

as you have probably discovered by now, your domain name is yours!

CarbonTerry · #8 02-15-2006, 01:08 AM

I have been off the computer all day. Not quite sure what you mean.

CarbonTerry · #9 02-15-2006, 06:12 AM

Just checked whois access....woohoo

CarbonTerry · #10 02-17-2006, 05:21 AM

It has been 3 days. Should the website have appeared yet?
www.fphcbigblue.com (handball website)

Hello,
Thanks for the advice. I am not quite sure what to do. In my VodaHost Domain panel this info is indicated:
dns1.name-services.com
dns2.name-services.com
dns3.name-services.com
dns4.name-services.com
dns5.name-services.com
If I try to change that, I get a warning that I will be leaving VodaHost. Don't want to do that either.
Stuck again. Too much input.......

VodaHost · #14 02-17-2006, 07:05 AM

Don't worry, change them to....

ns5.vodahost.com
ns6.vodahost.com

-------------------------
Those are just filler name servers
that are there to take up space

CarbonTerry · #15 02-17-2006, 07:06 AM

Thanks *****, I have watched that tutorial several times. When I get to the window for the Our DNS Servers there is no option to configure only to change settings. If I click on that I am notified that I will be leaving VodaHost.
The is an option to "configure" in the next panel....DNS Settings with a notice that this is for Advanced Users only. That's not me.

Sorry, I seem to be posting just a bit after you post. I will try that. Thanks

Don't worry about it. I just did it for you, please allow 24 hours for propagation.
