you need to give the Internic two IP addresses for two DNS servers that
are fully net connected 100% of the time, that's all really, and then you
have to setup those two DNS's on those two IP's to do the rest ...

You also have to move from ESAT, which is a form on www.internic.net to
submit a change request..
