Update on Domain Theft Protection
BizStreet
From 3rd February 2010, the Customer Lock feature will be deprecated
and replaced by advanced Domain Theft Protection management.
Henceforth, all Customers will be able to disable Domain Theft
Protection on their Domains, even if you or your Sub-Resellers have
enabled it. By default, this feature will be enabled during the
purchase process for all new Domains in the interests of greater
control.
Domain Theft Protection links will be visible on the Domain Management
console in the Control Panel as well as the Order Details page.
IMPORTANT: Resellers using the API will have to make the following
changes:
API Changes:
* setCustomerLock and removeCustomerLock calls will be deprecated.
These methods will continue to work in the interim and will enable/
disable Theft Protection.
* enableTheftProtection and disableTheftProtection calls will now
be used to enable/disable Theft Protection.
* Bulk Lock currently accepts Resellerlock/Customerlock as
parameters. Bulk Lock will continue to work with Customerlock as the
parameter and shall be used to enable/disable Theft Protection
* The getLockList call will be modified. Currently it returns a
hashtable with the lockname as the key (if the order has been locked).
The value of the key is also a hashtable that contains particulars
such as reason, creationdt, lockerid, etc.
Henceforth, the getLockList call will return a hashtable with
the resellerlock and/or customerlock and/or transferlock keys. The
value of the resellerlock key will be a hashtable which contains the
reason, creationdt, lockerid particulars and the value of the
customerlock/transferlock keys will be true (if enabled).
It is important that you make the appropriate changes to the
getLockList call on the day it is deployed (3rd February). If you have
any questions about the change to the getLockList call, feel free to
write to us.
