[Opendnssec-user] Changing serial number type

[Jonathan Stanton]

On a similar line, but slightly off OpenDNSSEC topic, we currently host a zone file at our hosting centre which is then picked up by a 3rd party DNS hosting partner, who provides our public DNS service.  What is the best way to manage the change of serial number formats in this scenario?  I am thinking that it is to get them to restart their front end DNS servers?
