Hi All, I was away from my mail yesterday, and so I can comment on this thread only now.
First, I would like to suggest that you use another regsitrar, as there are plenty regsitrars that will charge you $8.99 or less (I recently payed that much for a .com domain). I used Mad Dog domains, BTW. Second, Those A records aren't too standard. AFAICR, (and it's early morning, so my mileage might vary), the RFC for this states that an IP address be given only one A record, and this IP address is already assigned "vipe.stud.technion.ac.il". I suggest that you define a CNAME record, rather than an A record, which points to vipe.stud.technion.ac.il. Third, I can offer you an NS service on vipe itself, and can point you at several free secondary NS services around, such as http://www.granitecanyon.com , for added redundancy. Fourth, the MX record will be better off pointing to vipe.stud.technion.ac.il and not vipe.technion.ac.il. This is the A record for vipe, and so some MTAs may refuse to transfer mail to vipe, since reverse lookups will point to another name. Although this is an RFC recommendation, I remember some user we had at vipe a few years ago couldn't mail us from Argentina (using some weird MTA) for this reason.
