*****PLEASE NOTE***** This is an important Informational Message to the internet community:

November 5, 2002, the IP address for J.root-servers.net will change in the authoritative NS set for "dot". The change will be reflected in zone serial # 2002110501.

The new set of servers authoritative for "dot" will be: A.ROOT-SERVERS.NET. 5w6d16h IN A 198.41.0.4 H.ROOT-SERVERS.NET. 5w6d16h IN A 128.63.2.53 C.ROOT-SERVERS.NET. 5w6d16h IN A 192.33.4.12 G.ROOT-SERVERS.NET. 5w6d16h IN A 192.112.36.4 F.ROOT-SERVERS.NET. 5w6d16h IN A 192.5.5.241 B.ROOT-SERVERS.NET. 5w6d16h IN A 128.9.0.107 J.ROOT-SERVERS.NET. 5w6d16h IN A 192.58.128.30 K.ROOT-SERVERS.NET. 5w6d16h IN A 193.0.14.129 L.ROOT-SERVERS.NET. 5w6d16h IN A 198.32.64.12 M.ROOT-SERVERS.NET. 5w6d16h IN A 202.12.27.33 I.ROOT-SERVERS.NET. 5w6d16h IN A 192.36.148.17 E.ROOT-SERVERS.NET. 5w6d16h IN A 192.203.230.10 D.ROOT-SERVERS.NET. 5w6d16h IN A 128.8.10.90

This WILL require a change to your root hints file. The new file will be available via anonymous ftp from rs.internic.net:/domain/named.root as well as ftp.internic.net:/doamin/named.root starting 11/5/02 1700UTC (12pm EST/9am PST).

Both the new and old j.root-servers.net IP space will provide answers in parallel for the foreseeable future.
