A friend of mine has srl.org which is listed in whois as a nameserver with a particular IP. Bulkregister isn't helping with changing the IP and is saying it's become much more difficult since the .org change-over. Is this smoke & mirrors or is there some truth behind it? Anyone know how to change a registered nameserver's IP these days?
It seems that looking up the address (`host srl.org`) returns the A record without consulting the nameservers, presumably since it's registered with an A record by dint of being a whois-known nameserver. I didn't realise the gTLD servers did that. What a pain in the arse. penderel:~$ ns srl.org | perl -ne '/\S+$/ && print `host srl.org $&`' srl.org A 208.44.199.253 srl.org A 208.44.199.253 srl.org A 208.44.199.253 penderel:~$ host srl.org srl.org A 64.81.251.171 penderel:~$ Either that or I've made a mistake here somewhere :-) Paul -- Paul Makepeace ....................................... http://paulm.com/ "What is the difference between symbolism and surrealism?
