Hi -
My server is housed with a company thats just gone bust :( I've got
about 48 hours to migrate everything across to a new server (with new
dns). Luckily I had planned to do this soon anyway so I've done most of
the work (toaster migrated very easily with the help of this list
thanks!). The only problem is that now I've been forced to move my
nameserver as well. Rather than change the IP of the underlying primary
server ns1 (as I'm not sure this will work - how do registrars deal with
this, dont they have an set IP?) I'm trying to get all domains to change
the primary nameserver to a new server ns2. I've just been told by
godaddy that they wont change it to this new address because they are
only able to use authoritative name servers. I've updated my old server
dns settings to:
.bar-coded.net::ns2.bar-coded.net
.50.144.10.217.in-addr.arpa:217.10.144.50:ns2.bar-coded.net:259200
=ns1.bar-coded.net:213.151.36.176
+ns2.bar-coded.net:217.10.144.50
(snipped other non-essential dns). I've replicated this on the new dns
at 217.10.144.50, but I cant get godaddy to accept the update.
I thought that this meant that ns2 was an authoritive ns?
Anyone got any ideas? I can send more info if needed, but its a bit of a
rush job unfortunately (and I might lose the server completely :(
Thanks
Marcus
