When you ask your GPS "Give me directions to MadPicks house.", it translates "MadPicks House" into 1600 Nowhere Street, Seattle WA 99999.

When you tell your web browser "go to http://www.waguns.org", the DNS server translates that into an IP address, 69.73.172.49.

The DNS server caches that entry for 24 hours (TTL), so it doesn't have to look it up all the time.

If you shorten the TTL to 1 minute, then every minute, it will ask again for the right address.

So when you move http://www.waguns.org from the old VPS to the new dedicated server, and change the DNS record to point to the new IP, your web browser will immediately get the new IP, and won't get a stale record for 24 hours.

But fear not, this stuff is Dan’s department and he’s much more smarter than I am.

I recommend that right now, you go update the DNS records, and change the TTL to 1 minute, or whatever the shortest possible is. That way when you make changes on Tuesday, they will take effect almost immediately.


Snozz, thanks for the chime in. I actually requested that be changed before this even began. I don't have access to the WHM on our current VPS, and Rich isn't exactly the speediest in getting things done. On our new VPS, it's set for 3600 (which is 6 min).

You've registered waguns.org via godaddy. You have it set to use ns1(2).rmcgirr83.org as the Name Servers. These Name Servers appear to be run by the PhPBB guy. Which is why you need them to set the TTL.

For the new VPS, will you be getting a static IP? If so, you can use Godaddy's name servers, and then point the record yourself to the static IP.

You might want to setup a 2nd domain name, like www2.waguns.org, that points to the new VPS right now, so you can start testing etc.

Thanks Snozz for pointing all this stuff. For non techies its so much gobbly gunk but makes a huge difference.

I'm headed to the pet store to get an extra guinea pig.

If anyone has a use for it after we get the server migration completed, PM me.
