Perhaps this will actually happen tonight, the 4th of *April*? Just pointing out the obvious. At 09:26 AM -0400, 04/04/2001, Brad Verd wrote:

This is an Informational Message to the internet community:

Wednesday evening, the 4th of March, Verisign Global Registry Services will be changing the IP address for g.gtld-servers.net in the authoritative NS set serving com/net/org.

The new set of servers authoritative for these TLDs will be:

A.GTLD-SERVERS.NET. 6D IN A 192.5.6.30 G.GTLD-SERVERS.NET. 6D IN A 192.42.93.30 C.GTLD-SERVERS.NET. 6D IN A 192.26.92.30 I.GTLD-SERVERS.NET. 6D IN A 192.36.144.133 B.GTLD-SERVERS.NET. 6D IN A 203.181.106.5 D.GTLD-SERVERS.NET. 6D IN A 192.31.80.30 L.GTLD-SERVERS.NET. 6D IN A 192.41.162.30 F.GTLD-SERVERS.NET. 6D IN A 192.35.51.30 J.GTLD-SERVERS.NET. 6D IN A 210.132.100.101 K.GTLD-SERVERS.NET. 6D IN A 213.177.194.5 E.GTLD-SERVERS.NET. 6D IN A 207.200.81.69 M.GTLD-SERVERS.NET. 6D IN A 202.153.114.101

This will not require any change to root.cache file and both the old and new IP's for g.gtld-servers.net will provide answers for com, net, and org in parallel for enough time to accommodate the zones TTL's.
