Q:

How to force browsers/ISPs to look for my new DNS?

hi guys,

I have changed the DNS for my domain. what code (or header) should I use in my old server to tell the visitor's browser or ISP that it should check for my new DNS and the current content is old?

is the temp redirecting to a subdomain should help?

or you know a better way?

A:

Did your ip address change and the domain name is still the same? In this case, the old dns server should return the new ip address for you domain name. If your domain name changed, you could configure your webserver, to redirect all requests from the old domain to the new domain .

It takes time for DNS changes to propagate -- some servers will have the older IP address cached, and may even ignore the TTL setting before trying to refresh their data from the authoritative DNS server. So it may be necessary to keep the old IP address in service for a while, until the stale DNS entries eventually disappear.

domain is the same. the problem is that i cannot change DNS server settings. I just can change DNS for domain.

Frankly, takpar, your comment is hard to understand. You say you cannot change the DNS but you say you changed it? Can you be more specific and provide hard details?
