Hi Paul,
It usually takes 24 hours to propagate, but also NetSol say that it must be
registered as a nameserver with the original registrar , as NetSol only
mirror other dns dbases !
So thats the best way round it, register with your registrar first and
NetSol usually takes care of itself, but its best to also register with them
afterwards.
