Apart from the fact that propagation normally takes a few days, (which
may explain why nothing resolves from here even though a whois returns
the right results), I just did a dig on your server and 216.242.60.180
and found:

solonix.com.       1D IN NS        cobalt1.solonix.com.

and yet cobalt1.solonix.com doesn't seem to exist. Also, asking your
machine who the NS servers are for this domain yields the cobalt1
record, which again doesn't exist. You need to change your machine's DNS
recortds for solonix.com so that the nameserver is ns1.solonix.com.

Remember, if you're working *on* that machine, or if your client
computer uses your own server's DNS, you won't be subject to any
propagation delays and you should see your own changes instantly. This
is a great way to make sure your stuff works before propagation spreads
wrong information all around the Internet.
