    What is going on with dot org domain names?

    Two I owned failed automatic reregistration this morning. When I checked whois is shows they and a third dot org domain name are available which should not be the case. Even dmoz.org shows to be available.

    Must be a registrar problem. The .org registry is ok, check your domains directly from the source:

    Thanks, shopperx. Domain names show up there as belonging to me. I have sent an email to my registrar but had no reply. Since I have only a month to get them reregistered would feel better much better if I could do so.

    Finally got them registered, I think. Better check again to make sure. The whois on registrars site and whois.sc were not functioning for dot org names this morning.

    Through which registrar you register domains, Shannon?

    These were registered through domainsnext. I do not know what the problem was but I kept trying and finally got them registered.
