Hello people,

I am working in an ISP setup to start with and we offer domain
registration services to clients, because we have a reseller
account with OpenSRS.
It is this reseller position that I want to extend...

I am thinking about offering domain registration services to some
organizations around me.
I am currently using OpenSRS to register domain names. Does anyone
know what it would take, either via another method, or by using the
OpenSRS system (their client application) to offer other people
registration services.
Basically what I am looking at is a way to get people registering
domains via my own an interface (think of the OpenSRS client)
then the registration is submitted to OpenSRS using my account.
The issues I'd face are mostly accounting, but I am thinking that
I could authenticate users via some DB and even allocate them
some credit that they can use.

Any advise/clues most welcome.


-Wash
