OK, I seem to have missed identifying a finer point. Both registrars (old and new) also host the DNS records for the domain (actually several domains). My question is which registrar (both are fully configured) will ultimately win at the root server, and how is this determined? The mail and web servers are up and running, and their IP addresses are not going to change. I just want to guarantee that when the account on registrar ABC is fully removed that registrar XYZ will begin DNS announcements to the root servers. Thank you for the responses so far, as well as the pointers to additional info/faq/rfc/etc. -Jim P. > -----Original Message----- > From: Jim Popovitch > Sent: Saturday, 28 June, 2003 12:09 > To: [email protected] > Subject: DNS announcement question > > I have a question about the way DNS records are announced/handled.
