This is one of the most important events in the Internet History of Pakistan. Chairman Pakistan Telecommunication Authority (PTA), Dr. Muhammad Yaseen visited PKNIC Lahore Office for this purpose. PKNIC is the current operator of Country Code Top Level Domain (CCTLD). The purpose of the visit of PTA Chairman is to analyze the recently upgraded ‘.pk’ Infrastructure, Datacenters, and Customer Service Department.

During his visit, he found that .PK domain Root Server mirroring is fully operational. PKNIC completed this task successfully and also tested it on global root servers like A.Root.Servers.Net and M.Root.Servers.Net. New authoritative mirror will enable local resolution of ‘.PK’ websites. PKNIC new mirror is M-2.PKNIC.Net.Pk (203.128.7.123). PKNIC representatives briefed PTA Chairman more about the Mirroring techniques.

Chairman PTA, himself was involved in transferring ‘.pk’ to Pakistan and he did it. This is really a good step towards Digital success in Pakistan. Though PKNIC is the operator of .com.pk and .pk domains in Pakistan but the customer service is pathetic and no online customer backend is available for customers from where they can change Domain Name Servers (DNS) themselves. They have to visit the domain reseller office for this purpose. I would request PKNIC authorities to spend some money on the website design and its functionality as well.
