Re: secondary ns ip changing

[WebWiz]

Good point.  This particularly affects name servers that were originally registered with NSI, then moved to OpenSRS. For some reason, NSI retains the original settings.   I think this can cause problems if someone registers a domain at NSI after you've made this change, and tries to tie the name servers to it.  Can anyone confirm that that's the case?  I seem to recall that NSI's systems get all flustered when a name server (which is no longer under their control) has a new address.  Their NS records don't reflect the change, and you can't change their records because they don't control the domain.  Quite a conundrum.

(this may not be the case with OpenSRS's whois, but is the case with NSI whois)   - matt ----- Original Message ----- From: WebWiz To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Saturday, April 21, 2001 7:21 PM Subject: Re: secondary ns ip changing As I understand it, if you change the IP associated with the name (in the root registry), then all domains tied to that name will automagically update with it.
