DNS server IP Change
Hi,
We host DNS records for several domains on one of our DNS servers. We have changed that name server's IP address. We changed the A record for our name server (ns2.example.com) to the new IP address. How do we change the IP address of our name server with the root servers? When you look at the domain servers for the various domains our servers are responsible for, the old IP is still listed beside ns2.example.com. Does anyone know where we'd go to change this? The domain was initially registered at Network Solutions and now it's registered with Tucows (if that makes any difference).
Thanks!

You have to notify to your registrar/mantainer (Tucows) the new dns ip.

What they said. Usually there is a TTL set on the IP address change to propagate through DNS. If you speak with their tech support and apologize for not working through them, they may put a short TTL on your records so they propagate quicker.

Perfect. Thanks!
