about Expired Domain I've just bought

    I don't know it was an expired one until I bought it 2 days ago. and now I have this problem. I've pointed the domain to my hosting account and installed a script on it. but after few hours the domain automatically redirected to sedoparking.com , and it happens a lot.
    Sometimes Sedo takes whole control of the domain, but sometimes only the one with www.
    is this normal? how can I solve it? I never bought any expired domain before, and it looks like it has been parked for a while.

    DNS needs to be updated - take upto 48 hours sometimes. as long as the nameserrvers have been updated it will take 24--48 hours to propogate

    Wait for the DNS to propagate and ask the seller to delete the parked domain in his sedo account.

    Just patience. I will take 24 hours to propagate.

    How long (days/months) the domain has been expired before you were able to register it for yourself?

    Allow up to 48 hours, though you'll want to make sure the Nameservers are pointed where you want them. The previous owner may have parked it at Sedo, and the nameservers will sometimes stay the same when the domain pops into your account.

    If you intend to park it at Sedo, you'll need to have them delete it from the other persons account so you can add it.

    I think you have to wait for a little while - SEDO can be a bit of a pain in the arse sometimes!
