This is true for ALL registrars. Names not numbers. It is in the nature of the DNS. The great advantage is, that you just have to change one record if you change IPs. > I see NS1 still has my old IP and NS2 still has the IP to my old secondary. > > Is the only way to fix this to contact Godaddy? Yes. They may have a page on their site to do the IP number change. At least some registrars do, e.g. Tucows or Enom. It takes some time for the update of the IP number to propagate. So if possible, leave the old numbers up for a bit. A day or two. To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
