I recently moved and changed all IPs. Name servers took about 36 hours to
update. Plus, some ISPs had old values cached and didn't use the new servers
for almost a week... Good thing I left the old servers on-line during the
move! They seemed to cache info, even though I had reduced the TTL in the
weeks leading up to the move. So much for RFC 1035, which states that I
define my own cache times for my own domains:
<!--StartFragment-->- Where there tradeoffs between the cost of acquiring
data, the
speed of updates, and the accuracy of caches, the source of
the data should control the tradeoff.
