The DNS service takes time to notice the new IP interface. You can speed this up by rebooting, or by quitting and restarting the DNS service. QuickdNS Remote should respond on the new interface immediately. ____________________________________________________________________ Chris Buxton Men & Mice support@menandmice.com Making DNS Easy At 12:57 PM +0100 6/5/03, Paul Willis wrote: >Hi > >We are running QDNS 3.5.1 on Mac OS X 10.2.6 as our primary server. >This box also runs LetterRip mailing list software. > >We are in the process of changing ISPs and have two lines into the >office with two blocks of IP numbers.
