I believe the only way for you to get your domain delegation changed is
through your registrar, NetSol. We changed our IP addrs last summer, and
as a result our name server addresses also changed. Once I got in touch
with our registrar, the change took less that 24 hours.

Don't forget about delegation of the in-addr.arpa zones as well. If you
can get your subnet delegated that is. Otherwise, you will need to get
your new ISP to change the PTRs for your new host addresses.
