.ch registrars : goodbye nic.ch, but where to go then ?

by Olivier Mueller

Hello, As you most probably all know, .ch domains which are still registered at nic.ch have to be moved to another registrar by autumn 2016 (https://www.nic.ch/reg/cm/wcm-page/misc/aufgabentrennung.html). But thanks to some recent marketing campaigns (like "Per 31. Dezember 2014 braucht Ihre .ch-Domain ein neues Zuhause!"), ads and newspaper articles, some customers are already panicking, so I am also looking for a new home for a few hundreds of self-hosted domains. Requirements: - it should be a registrar only company, if possible (to prevent departure of customers to other hosting companies) - customer billed directly - DNSSEC / IPV6 capable - no aggressive ads on checkout (add antivirus, add top listing, add hosting, etc.) At the moment, my first choice would be gandi.net, even if they are a little bit more expensive than the others and they are also selling some kind of hosting, because it "just works", and I like their "no bullshit" promise :) But maybe there would be a more suitable alternative, so my question to you if you are in a similar situation : which is your new .ch-registrar and why ? Thanks & kind regards, Olivier PS: just in case, here is the current list of .ch-Registrars according to the official listing @ Switch, sorted by yearly-cost (no warranty of correctness). 26 companies out of total 70 are not listed (no visible public pricing, reseller-only, etc.) : CHF URL 1 8.90 http://www.infomaniak.com/en 2 9.90 https://www1.q-x.ch/ 3 9.95 http://www.greenmark-it.de/ 4 10.70 https://www.hosttech.ch/ 5 10.75 https://www.metanet.ch/ 6 10.81 http://www.ovh.com/fr/index.xml 7 11.90 http://www.kreativmedia.ch/de/ 8 11.96 http://www.hostway.de/ 9 12.90 http://www.netzone.ch/ 10 12.95 http://www.novatrend.ch/de/ 11 13.50 http://www.1api.net/ 12 13.80 http://www.bar.ch/ 13 13.90 http://www.firestorm.ch/ 14 14.00 https://www.iway.ch/ 15 14.16 http://www.123domain.eu/ 16 14.42 https://www.namebay.com/ 17 14.50 http://www.green.ch/de-ch/home.aspx 18 14.50 http://www.netim.com/domain/ 19 14.90 https://www.amenic.ch/de/ 20 14.90 https://www.cyon.ch/domains/ch-transfer 21 14.90 http://www.easyname.com/en 22 14.90 http://www.webland.ch/ 23 15.00 https://www.hostfactory.ch/ 24 15.00 http://www.hostpoint.ch/ 25 15.00 http://www.vtx.ch/ 26 15.50 http://www.domainpartner.ch/ 27 15.50 http://www.mhs.ch/domains 28 15.50 http://www.switchplus.ch/?lang=de 29 15.90 https://www.hosteurope.ch/ 30 16.12 http://www.gandi.net/ 31 16.71 http://www.inwx.de/ 32 18.03 http://www.1domain.at/ 33 18.36 https://www.101domain.com/ 34 18.41 http://www.marcaria.com/ 35 19.00 https://www.openprovider.co.uk 36 19.71 http://www.domaindiscount24.com/de/ch-domain 37 20.05 https://www.checkdomain.de/ 38 33.66 https://www.eurodns.com/ 39 36.06 http://www.info.at/ 40 58.90 http://www.1und1.de/ 41 59.50 http://www.register.eu/ 42 70.92 http://www.domainname.at/ 43 101.75 http://www.instra.com/ 44 119.00 https://www.united-domains.de/

by Silvan M. Gebhardt / Силван Гебхардт

Hi Oliver, I am using amenic.ch - Why? Its basically the same guys as Novatrend*, but since you asked fore a "registrar only" that's what they did to allow their customer to prevent customer drain ;) I know them personally, IPV6 is possible, I think DNSSEC is currently under work (I also asked for that :D ) Silvan * Disclaimer: good friends, I help run their network, so there is a clear affiliation there. ----- Ursprüngliche Mail ----- Von: "Olivier Mueller" <om-lists-swinog(a)omx.ch> An: swinog(a)swinog.ch Gesendet: Dienstag, 25.

Virtual numbers for receiving SMS and voice?

by Stanislav Sinyagin

hi all, I need to have a Swiss phone number which can receive SMS and voice calls and forward them to my PBX. I know I can build a gateway with a GSM modem, but I'd rather prefer a service from a provider. Up to now I found several service providers like aspsms.com which can only receive SMS on their virtual numbers, but no voice calls. Twilio.com promises such numbers, but Swiss numbers are only available for beta users (waiting for them to enable my beta program access). Any other suggestions? I would also be interested in an Italian number for similar purpose. Italy is not on the list at Twilio yet. cheers, -- Stanislav Sinyagin Senior Consultant, CCIE #5478 ssinyagin(a)k-open.com +41 79 407 0224

Swisscom 6RD and MTU

by Vincent Bernat

Hi! At home, I have replaced Swisscom internet box by my own (Linux) router. For IPv6, I noticed that the MTU is 1472 instead of 1480 (1500 - 20). For IPv4, MTU is 1500. Does anyone know why the MTU on those 6RD links has to be 1472 and not 1480? Have other people with the same setup noticed that too? -- printk("HPFS: Grrrr... Kernel memory corrupted ... going on, but it'll crash very soon :-(\n"); 2.4.3 linux/fs/hpfs/super.c
