Is it possible to search for domains owned by a particular registrant?

I dont think so and if you could what would be the point of it.

yeah but you would have to parse zf and have relating whois information big job for most

I put the domain name in as the registrant to avoid possible transfer fees. you wouldn't gain anything by doing a registrant search in this case.

i hope that this is never allowed
it poses a great security risk to web developers

This topic has been discussed in the past few weeks. There is no free service for this, but a paid service has opened recently.

No!

If you know how the zone files work along with the WHOIS info, you know that this is impossible without a HUGE HUGE HUGE amount of time and effort as well as a mega-database.

This has been discussed quite a few times in the recent past. If you search the forums, you will be able to find the threads.

Used to be at NetSol/NetworkSolutions.. if you knew the NIC handle, you could do a 'nic search' and it would pull up all names registered by that nic handle/owner. Just key in a domain in Netsol.. it'll show the nic handle of that owner of that name.. then try to do a nic search.. I believe in the past, this info was accessible over there.
