Default Switching Servers

I am currently trying to switch servers. I cannot switch the DNS and new IP address because the company I registered the domain with is out of business.

Does anyone have any suggestions as to how to go about changing this info now?

Much appreciated.

Dave

I'm pretty sure you'll have to transfer the domain to a new company.

Most companies will transfer the domain for you for a small fee. For example, I use dotster to register and maintain all my domains. In their case you do not need the extra services they offer (dns management, email forwarding, etc. )

Your new host deals with the DNS and IP addresses. Once you get everything transferred all you have to worry about it the nameservers that the domain points to.

What is the domain name so I can do a whois look up for you. If it is registered to the hosting company, all you can do is wait for the domain to expire. If it was put in your name when they registered it you can contact ICANN to transfer it. I will help you more once I know your domain name as it is all a shot in the dark without that info.
