Gandi.net Groups

Hi,

I visited Gandi to register a new domain and was surprised when the
"choose your domain" function listed the domain under "The following
domains are unavailable", as I'd already done my own WHOIS and found no
match (I also double-checked directly at InterNIC's site). Even when I
clicked the "Whois" link next to the word "Unavailable", Gandi said it
was available and displayed a link/button to buy it, but that dumped me
straight back to the "unavailable" page.

Next, I started entering random strings for domains, and none of those
were available either! I tried it in both IE and Firefox, so it's not a
strange browser issue.

Anyone else having this problem?

Thanks.

Hello,

The situation is now back to normal.

For explanations, a complication with our data base has arisen this
morning, creating a loss of forwarding and connection with some
regsitries (including those providing .com, .net, .eu, .be)

We apologize fore the inconvenience.

Best regards,

Sam
