Filling NIC.at Configuration Form

Before you start configuring the NIC.at plug-in, please, generate the PGP key pair to digitally sign e-mail requests sent to the NIC.at registry by the plug-in. This is necessary for your requests authorization at the NIC.at gateway side.

The keys must be generated for the callback e-mail address shown on the plug-in configuration form.

The Registrar accepts domain registration requests via e-mail and sends the domain registration status responses (callback) via e-mail as well. The relevant message template for the domain registration requests is built in the plug-in. To ensure the reliable interaction between HSPcomplete and the Registrar, it might be necessary to submit the callback e-mail to the Registrar. All e-mail plug-ins generate callback e-mail addresses automatically at the moment of installation. The mailbox is created automatically. The Callback e-mail address field in the plug-in configuration form is read-only and shows you this callback e-mail.

The callback e-mail is always included in the plug-in e-mail request sent to the NIC.at. So, it is not necessary to pass this e-mail to the NIC.at gateway, since the two-way communication between the plug-in and the NIC.at gateway is established by default.

After you generate the PGP key pair (for the callback e-mail), it is necessary to send the public key to NIC.at registry, to the following e-mail address:

at-dom.regtest@nic.at

To configure the NIC.at plug-in:

  1. Click the Edit button on the NIC.at plug-in screen. Fill the form that appears.
    1. Type your NIC.at registrar identifier (obtained after registration) into the Registrar ID field.
    2. Type your NIC.at registrar name (obtained after registration) into the Registrar Name field.
    3. Enter an arbitrary name (e-mail address or any username, or just a name) into the Registrar User field. This name is required for additional authorization.
    4. Enter the e-mail address for the plug-in to send domain registration and domains management requests to the NIC.at gateway into the Gateway e-mail address field.
    5. Enter the secret key passphrase into the Passphrase for secret key field.
    6. Paste your PGP public key content into the Public key field.
    7. Paste your PGP secret key content into the Secret key field.
  2. Click the OK button.
