Name: www.grepel.de Address: 192.67.198.4 Seems to me, as if it's resolving just fine?

I believe what Scott meant (indeed, what he wrote) is that the responses you are getting from nslookup are NOT for grepel.de. They are for the ".de" TLD. Nslookup attempts to provide as much information it can on the domain it is looking up. In this case, it queried the root servers for "grepel.de" and got a referral to the servers that handle ".de". It then queried the .de servers and found nothing for grepel.de, so it returned everything it had (the ".de" information). IOW, you DID get a response, just not the one you thought you got. You can see in your posts that every record returned is for "de", not "grepel.de".
