Hey Everyone,

I have my own dedicated Raq with my own nameservers (ns.mydomain.com and ns2.mydomain.com)

Well, mydomain.com is about to close down and I want to open a new business up.

So now, for this new business, I want to change the ns servers so they are ns.newbusiness.com and ns2.newbusiness.com

I would like to know what are the steps I should take to do this? I have a Raq 3 if that helps :)

I have about 20 websites that are currently pointing to the ns.mydomain.com nameservers so would this change affect any of them? And what would I need to do to make sure everything changes smoothly?

Thanks for your help! - much appreciated ;)

Well, I don't know whether the concepts work or not.

Just set up ns/ns2.newbiz.com , and redirect ns/n2.oldbiz.com to newbiz nameservers. And then, I think you can use the new nameservers without changing your clients' DNS.

Just my 2 cents.
