Can I update TreeWalk's root-hints?

Depending on some factors independent of this custom DNS distribution, the named.root (root-hints) file may become outdated. To do this, simply use the "Update root-hints from ..." icons you'll find in the "TreeWalk" program group to update your root-hints file. Those icons will download an updated file while stopping and restarting your TreeWalk server so that the latest changes can be implemented. Only one zone can be updated at a time.

The update process may be performed on a periodic basis so that your personal DNS will always have the latest name-server list for the Root Zone that you choose. The TreeWalk program group icons in the Start Menu also contain shortcuts to tools which can be used to verify that your new TreeWalk DNS resolver is performing hostname resolution.

In most cases you'll notice an improvement after installing TW with the default setup and may never need to adjust the root-hints. If you experience any problems with other root-hints switch back to the default ICANN hints.
