I agree completely.
I think Blasco has a point there and will implement this unless someone cries "stop". for MX-only domains both name server and zone contact attributes are actually attributes of the parent (or an ancestor) domain.
Cheers, Ruediger

Hello NCC people,
I think the update procedure is not right giving the following error:
domain: fis.uniurb.it descr: Universita' degli Studi di Urbino descr: Istituto di Fisica remarks: It is a public institution devoted to researches in some field s remarks: of Physics and Biomedical Engineering and teaching admin-c: Filippo Martelli tech-c: Flavio Vetrano tech-c: Pietro Dominici remarks: MX-only source: RIPE changed: domain@nis.garr.it 930217 WARNING: mandatory attribute "zone-c" missing in object
A MX-only domain has no nameserver and therefore cannot have a zone-c contact information. I think that zone-c should not be considered a mandatory attribute.
All my best. - ---------- ---------- Antonio_Blasco Bonito E-Mail: bonito@nis.garr.it GARR - Network Information Service c=it;a=garr;p=garr;o=nis;s=bonito c/o CNUCE - Istituto del CNR Tel: +39 (50) 593246 Via S.
