I have just purchased a domain name from surpassdomains.com and was hoping to direct it a private webserver I have.

I know there is the A {ADDRESS} but I would like to see if this actually works.

Im using a distrobution of linux running BIND. I think I made all the necessary edits to the configuration files and done all that correctly.

Question is, it usually takes up to 48 hours to update the DNS? Or how does it exactly go with a custom nameserver?

Thanks for any help.
