In other forums, those changing over from Comcast to RoadRunner have
been able to use news-server.socal.rr.com. It seems to vary in areas of
Southern California, based on whether Adelphia was involved or not.
As for the difference in DNS resolution, DNS in your area may resolve
differently, perhaps to ease the transition.???
