My experience is that *new* domains take a much shorter time for lookups
to succeed than Karl's suggest.  But, *changes* to domains may take a
while to ripple through, as things may have cached the prior answers for
a while.  Once any cached answers are flushed, the current ones will be
found.

It's usual to have more than one nameserver providing records for your
domain.  If one goes wonky, they other can answer queries.

Looking up your domain name:

[tim@bigblack bin]$ dig afolkey2.net

The answer section shows your IP, the authority section shows the name
servers that host your domain records, the additional section has
resolved the addresses for those domain servers.

Doing further digs on your domain, I see the www. subdomain is a CNAME
pointing to your domain name (that's quite usual), and you have no MX
record for your domain.  That's also not unusual, but not brilliant.
You really should have one that refers to the machine that handles
receiving mail for your domain.

Looking up ipowerweb.com also gets an answer, not a 192.168.1.1 one.

[tim@bigblack bin]$ dig +short ipowerweb.com
216.69.226.51

You might want to play with the dig tool testing the domains that aren't
working for you, and querying different DNS servers to see what they
think.  Use @ followed by the name server address to query (with no
space between them), else it'll use your /etc/resolv.conf configured
name servers.

e.g. dig @ns1.dnsexit.com afolkey2.net

-- 
[tim@bigblack ~]$ uname -ipr
2.6.21-1.3228.fc7 i686 i386

Using FC 4, 5, 6 & 7, plus CentOS 5.  Today, it's FC7.

Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored.
I read messages from the public lists.
