Search Again: Moving NS Hosts procedural question From: Jeffrey S. McPheeters Date: Saturday, May 8, 1999 Time: 8:19:00 pm I've seen this question dealt with before on this list, I think, but I want to double check before I proceed. Yesterday the cable service that is my ISP notified me that the fiber optic network is all complete and I have until next Friday to exchange my Zenith modem with 4 fixed IP#'s over to the new high-speed Surfboard modem. However on further research, I realize that the basic accounts will now be dynamic. I need to call Monday and arrange for a slightly higher cost business account, I'm guessing, which gets assigned fixed IP#'s. I think I get 4 with additional costing a certain amount per month more. Anyway, I need to put together a game plan for the switch-over with a minimum of hassle. I'm assuming they will not let me have the same IP#'s I've been using. If they do, then my problem goes away. But if they must change, then I need to get the InterNIC to switch my host records and make the changes here. I'm wondering what the best procedure would be and if there is anything I should ask the ISP to do to minimize the down time for others who use my mail server and list server. Also there are 4 domains that get their primary and secondary name services from me. The web services are hosted by a subsidiary of the ISP and I handle the mail/list/database servers. Sincere regards, Jeffrey
