As
long as you keep both physical machines online and answering queries at the same
time, altering the IP for the primary DNS will affect all domains using that
nameserver - allow 24-48 hours for propogation :)

Subject: modifying name server information
Does anybody know what the best procedure is to minimize downtime when switching providers? We are switching our providers which means we will need to modify our dns servers and all the domains since we have new IPs. Does anybody know of a resource/information/etc that could help me in switching IPs. Do we simply just modify the IP of our primary DNS to the new IP and all the other domains using that as the primary will follow suit? Any help would be appreciated...Thanks,David~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~David M. Mason
