The "List Handles" operation sends a request to the service to list all of the handles for a specific naming authority. If you have a large number of handles under your assigned subnaming authority, the list handles command may time-out since the database used by the handle server is not optimized for this kind of operation.
Example: If you want to list all handles under "0.NA/1030", input "1030" as the Handle Prefix.
The system will check your login information. If you are authenticated, the system will retrieve all handles under the specified subnaming authority and display them on the browser; otherwise, try to re-login. If unsuccessful, contact email@company.com.
The system will check your login information. If successful, you will enter the Change Password page; otherwise, try to re-login. If still unsuccessful, contact the Handle Administrator email@company.com.
The system will match the two inputs. If they are the same, the old password will be replaced by the new password. If it fails, re-input the new password. You need to use your new password to re-login to continue administration.
