netsol.com is now requiring its customers to use login ID/password to =
manage their domain registrations. Per my experience three weeks ago, =
it will take less than four hours in the middle of the day for the new =
nameserver info to show up on its web. It is to populate the root =
servers with the new info that takes much longer but still no more than =
24 hours when I last tried.
If you had the luxury of having the new IP block and the infrastructure =
available to you before the old block is taken away, you could have the =
new nameservers serving along with the old ones.

Subject: ISP is changing the IPs
Hello everyone,
My ISP just informed me that they are changing the IP addresses on my
servers in a week.
I have 2 name servers, serving my hosting clients (residing on the same
servers)
The good thing is that all my clients are using my name server, so I =
only
have to worry about the name servers, and not each individual site.
However, I am not sure how to do this to have the least amount of =
downtime.
Can anyone please suggest a solution?
My name servers are registered with netsol, so I know changing the name
servers take about 72 hours, and I can't afford to be down for that =
long.
I also know that by paying netsol something like $30.00, they can change =
the
IP address of the name server in less than 24 hours.
But still, this is not feasible!
Thanks,
Soheil
