 I'm re-doing a client's DNS and re-numbering for a new T-1 where he
 will be authoritative for his 2 forward zones and his reverse sub-net
 zone instead.

 He registered a .com host with NetSol yesterday. Within a couple of
 hours, it pops up in the whois database.

 But still this morning, the *.tld-servers.net, the .com parents,
 don't have the host's A record. I thought the .com parents were
 updated at least every 12 hours, and it's been longer than that.  The
 project is blocked without this host record published.

 Anybody have any recent experience with how long it takes for a new
 host record to show up in the .com NSs?

teaching grandmother to suck eggs

Teach not thy parent's mother to extract
The embryo juices of the bird by suction.
The good old lady can that feat enact,
Quite irrespective of your kind instruction.

  - Anon


dig @f.tld-servers.net ns1.whatever.com

... enacts the feat precisely and immediately, thanks.  :)

And still no answer 18 hours after registering the host.

I think it can take up to 48 hours with some registrars. Others like Dotster
update more often (hourly) although I think the root servers only update 1-2
times a day anyway.
