[cobalt-users] Moving DNS



I'm moving my DNS machines from one data-center to another - I've setup DNS, copied across my /etc/named/records and gone into the GUI and "Saved changes", then saved changes within the control panel - on all machines, I've changed references for ns3 and ns4 to be the IPs allocated to them in their new location - now I'm serving DNS from the new nameservers, and all my machines know that the services are on the new machines - how do the gtld nameservers get updated?

The output from dnsreport.com shows that the gtld nameservers have a TTL of 172,800 seconds - ie, 48 hours - does that mean I have to wait 48 hours for it to refresh?  Is there a way to speed this up?

(I have to do this again with another set of nameservers, but I don't want to attempt it until I have the ns3/ns4 pair moved across successfully.
