My hosting domain is sh00ter.com // Note the zero's not Oh's

c:\>ping cp.sh00ter.com

Pinging cp.sh00ter.com [64.156.220.224] with 32 bytes
Reply from 64.156.220.224: bytes=32 time=119ms TTL=46

----------- Looks correct to me ----------------
Why cp.Domain and not just ping domain.com? Why does
c:\>ping cp.sh00ter.com
Fail?
Won't this need to work so folks can go to my web site at Sh00ter.com?
 
Name________________TTL _____ Class __ Type ___ Data
ipdatabase.sh00ter.com 86400 IN A 63.209.152.17

I find it very odd the tutorial has ipdatabase and 63.209.152.17
hardcoded and the software makes you copy and paste these values. If they are constants, why can't the software automatically put them in?

Maybe it needs to propagate.
 
Here's another tool I use which isn't as intuative, but very helpful.

NSLookup - This is a command line tool. Type ? for options. Search the microsoft site for detailed information on it's use.
