Brukar väl gå på några dagar, men jag har för mej att en transfer med auth kod skall ta max 5 dagar. Man gör ju oftast inte ett ägarbyte på samma sätt som på exempelvis IIS.


What is a thin vs thick registry or whois?

In a thin domain registry the domain contact information is held by the registrar. The registry whois just holds a referral to the registrar, the registration, expiry, update date, nameservers and domain status.
A thick domain registry holds all of the contact information needed for the domain names.
After a transition of .ORG to a thick whois in 2003 .COM and .NET are the only generic Top Level Domains (gTLDs) still using a thin registry. Many of the ccTLD (country code top level domain) registries that were running thin registries are switching to using the Extensible Provisioning Protocol (EPP) protocol for the registrars to communicate with them, which normally goes hand in hand with a ‘thick whois’.
