AWS Route 53 - Updating primary NS (Name Servers)

It is unlikely that many folks will find themselves in this particular situation.

I have several AWS master/payer accounts - and one of the accounts "owned" my domain (cloudxabide.com) and I wanted to manage and control that domain from a different master account.

Account A - cloudxabide.com.
Account B - example.com. myotherexample.com.

Initiate the transfer of the domain by... (complete this later)

Create Hosted Zone (cloudxabide.com) and retrieve the 4 NS entries.

Then click on Registered Domains and the zone you wish to update.
Under the Name servers section there should be a "Add or edit name servers" entry - click on that.
Replace the existing server entries with the values you found above.
Once you have completed this step, you will need to wait for an email indicating the update has occurred.  You may have to wait up to 2 days for the records to finishing traversing the Interwebs, as well.


whois cloudxabide.com | grep ^Name
dig +short NS cloudxabide.com
nslookup -type=NS cloudxabide.com

If you're impatient... you can tell the commands which server to query
dig @ns-1410.awsdns-48.org cloudxabide.com.
nslookup cloudxabide.com. ns-1410.awsdns-48.org

HomeLab - Sophos XG SSL VPN and Comcast

Ugh... Comcast.  This sucked particularly much as this was my first attempt to configure a VPN back to my HomeLab and therefore was not sure what options I should have *known* would work.  Anywho... Sophos SSL VPN uses 8443 by default.  I spent a few hours trying to get through the config on the Sophos and my Linux client.  Nothing was working. For giggles I changed the Sophos to use 443, and then updated my client on my Linux workstation.  And suddenly it all works.  Fowk.  Tried 8443 again.  No love. I don't want to utilize port 443 as I intend to actually host some web apps for testing.  So, I have finalized on an "alternate" port which had to be configured on both the Sophos and the Linux client. I'l be doing a better write-up about this later.  I still need to figure out how to configure all this via the Gnome Network-Manager GUI.
