Re: Removing an NS server
Hal, we've done this before - it's not particularly hard, just takes a bit for everyone to pick up the new set of NS records. You just make the change upstream and also remove the NS records that reference the system. It's kind of weird: during the interim, you'll have a running nameserver that doesn't return itself in its NS records. If the same set of servers also serves your reverse zones, don't forget to update ARIN as well as Educause. Educause sets their upstream TTLs to two days (ARIN's 1 day), but people shouldn't be caching the referral, only your actual NS records. If you're at all concerned, you can always set a low TTL ahead of time on your NS records, so everyone will pull the updated records relatively quickly once you make your changes.

Removing an NS server
I don't think I made my point. I need to pull/remove a DNS nameserver from my set of nameservers. My plan was to put the reference to it from our domain name provider. Then pull it from the list of NS records. I am not changing my SOA record. Just the nameserver. Did I make a mistake? Did you mean pull the NS reord for that server, then pull it from the name provider. I'll still have 4 servers running the SOA, and I don't plan to stop the old nameserver until well after a week of running. -- Hal King - h...@utk.edu Systems Administrator Office of Information Technology Shared Systems Services The University of Tennessee 103C5 Kingston Pike Building 2309 Kingston Pk.

Re: Reverse DNS record for my webhost

They responded by telling me to provide them with the records I want. if you want to fix something, then it must be broken. However, they have asked you, what should the reverse be. so you just to have to tell them, what reverse DNS you want. for example, if your server is named "publicface.example.com", and the publicface.example.com DNS record points to your IP, just tell your ISP that you want it to be "publicface.example.com". they will apparently set it. I found the following response to someone's question on the *Net*: are you sure you need to search for answers on the net, instead of asking your ISP? -- Matus UHLAR - fantomas, uh...@fantomas.sk ; http://www.fantomas.sk/ Warning: I wish NOT to receive e-mail advertising to this address.
