(keitai-l) Re: server cache, phone cache?

I've had this problem too.

Slightly off-imode-topic, but relevant: Is there any way to change the TTL
of _other_ nameservers. ie we have ours set short, but some other slacker
DNS boxes don't seem to update for weeks....that makes propagation painful,
and a mess of redirects...

?

]  your update yet. It might take a week to two weeks for your new server
]  information to trickle down to all the various nameservers

]  the new server which as I said will take time...)

]  It is probably stuck in DoCoMo's nameservers cache too, so you'll either
