If you have a backorder affiliate account somewhere, enter your backorder url.

If you wish domain names to be registered with nameservers other than enom's by default, enter desired nameservers in the nameserver fields. Note: If you will be offering any of eNom's dns services such as url forwarding, etc you should leave the nameserver fields blank.

If you have a default park page you set for all newly registered domains, enter the complet url in the Default parking page url field. This only applies if you have left the nameserver fields empty, as it sets a url frame for the domain if it is using eNom's nameservers.

Save.

At www.enom.com

If there are no errors, login to your account at enom.com, go to the support area, open a new support request and ask for API access for the IP you entered in the test account setup area.

For Sale System

Activate the For Sale System in the AWBS Configuration, system options page.

Configure your For Sale categories in the AWBS Configuration, For Sale System page.

This allows you to configure the various different categories that a domain displayed in on the domains for sale page of your site. The system can store up to 20 different categories.

Hint: For the page to look good, you should add no less than 20 categories and keep the descriptions as brief as possible.

The for sale system will allow users to place their domain name for sale. The system will produce a form for perspective buyers to contact the owner without giving any information on the owner.

The domain owner will receive the form results with the purchase offer or request for a price via email (the email address configured in the user's profile).

Users can place any of their domains for sale or remove them at any time. They can choose the category they would like the domain displayed in.

In the user's domain management area, each domain will show the 'S' icon if it is currently not for sale and the 'FS' icon if it is for sale.

They can click on the 'S' icon to place the domain for sale.
