I have a question about the way DNS records are announced/handled. Thank
you in advance for any insight into this, and I hope this isn't too far off
topic for discussion here.
Background:
- I have a domain whose MX and DNS is handled by registrar ABC
and I am moving that domain to registrar XYZ.
- I have verified (via dig) the proper config on the new registrar.
- This has nothing to do with donotcall.gov ;)
Questions:
1) How does one registrar 'win out' over a second registrar when
updating root servers?
2) How can I verify that the domain will be properly 'announced'
to the root servers by the new registrar?
