My experience is that it takes about a week for a new domain name to
make it's way across the world. If it has been less than a week just
relax and it will happen.

Hello, Karl
So, you are saying that even though http://www.afolkey2.net is now
accessible by it's domain name, that different, oh let's say
"functions" of my domain will take different amounts of time to become
useable again? If that is so, that's cool. I'm just asking because I
honestly want to know. I must restate, though, that the thing that
confuses me is how my registrar, in two different locations, shows two
different sets of nameservers. But again, this might all just be a
waiting game.
Thank you for your attention,
Steven P. Ulrick
P.S.: I had forgotten that I had used the name of our dear deceased
cat, Linus (pronounced Lee-nus) in the account settings on this email
account. Like my wife just said, his memory lives on :)
I think most of the delay is about legal things. If you have
afolkey2.net showing up from 2 sources it takes time to see if that is
the case and is proper. All you need is a collection of letters and
numbers that no-one else has registered :-)
