Thanks Mark. Easy to google if you know what you are looking for. I didn't. I didn't even know what nzrs was except that it was in the dig response. Hourly... ok... my rego email came in at 2.59pm, so I think I might have missed this hour.... damn. ...Skeeve *Skeeve Stevens - *eintellego Networks Pty Ltd skeeve(a)eintellegonetworks.com ; www.eintellegonetworks.com Phone: 1300 239 038; Cell +61 (0)414 753 383 ; skype://skeeve facebook.com/eintellegonetworks ; http://twitter.com/networkceoau linkedin.com/in/skeeve twitter.com/theispguy ; blog: www.theispguy.com The Experts Who The Experts Call Juniper - Cisco - Cloud On Thu, Dec 19, 2013 at 3:10 PM, Mark Foster wrote:

Hi Skeeve,

I won't LMGTFY you but I did find this pretty quickly:

https://nzrs.net.nz/dns/zonebuild

Currently we update the second level zones every hour with the changes made over the last hour and do a full rebuild once a day.

:-)

Cheers Mark.

Hey all,

Just registered a co.nz domain and it is registered and visible in whois.

How often does this server refresh its data?

.nz zone data gets refreshed every hour on the hour. If your transaction was processed before the hour, it's highly likely it will make the next zone push.

The process more or less is:

- on the hour pick the data from the registry and generate the dataset needed to create the zone (domains, nameservers, ip addresses, DS records) - Pass the data to the servers that build the zones - Pass the new zone data to the signers for signing - Signers pass the signed zone data to the distribution masters - Distribution masters load the signed zone data, and send NOTIFYs to all slaves (local and international) - Zones get transferred and new data is available

Between the first and the last step usually 6 minutes pass, so you should expect to see new data in the DNS after that.

I hope this is clear enough, not the first to ask this recently.

Cheers!
