I have registered a new domain with namecheap and have added in my hosting's nameserver IP address. However, the URL still points to namecheap's IP address and I cannot get my site going. I have waited for the past 36 hours and yet this is not completed. I understand that normally, it takes less than 24 hours to get the DNS propogated but 36 hours? Any of you experience similar scenario?
I have had cases where it took a week to be everywhere - I had people in some gepgraphical areas saying they didn't see it while I (and many others) could. If you want to PM the site I can tell you if I see it here. __________________ Health Forum | Submit your site - No Recip Needed | Get Your Site Ranked Quick - Coop Network
Apparently namecheap is having a problem on their parked pages... I also managed to solve this problem with my hosting partner within 15minutes. Thanks for your help ysf1
Most DNS resource records have a TTL value of a few hours (e.g. intel.com: 4 hours; sun.com: 24 hours; redhat.com: 10 minutes; digitalpoint.com: 24 hours) - you get the idea. Never wait this long. If your domain name isn't configured after half a day, maximum a day, get on the phone with your DNS provider. J.D.
