DNS Propagation
Is there anyway to speed up DNS propagation. Network solutions is telling me it can take up to 48 hours. I am changing an A Record entry. Thanks.
Thats a worst case scenario I would bet. Im sure it will be way faster then 48 hours. As for your Q?, no I dont think you can speed this up.

And I think Bill is correct when he says that it will be way faster than 48 hours. In my experience it seems to happen within a couple of hours.
But if a DNS server ignores a record's TTL and specifies it's own cache time, there's absolutely nothing you can do about it (unless that server is under your control).
@footech:
Do you know how common it is for a DNS server to ignore TTL? I have no clue and am interested.

No, I've heard of them, but that's it.
I'd assume it'd be something like an ISP who is trying to minimize bandwidth.
