I registered a domain name - how long till it's active?

I registered a .org domain through GoDaddy last night at about midnight. I chose to "park it" for free at GoDaddy until I get my welcome message from my host (I took advantage of Cyberwings' niiiiiice hosting sale).

So, I know that Cyberwings is pretty backed up w/new registrations, but how long until my ghetto "under construction" page shows up at my domain name?

Thanks.

24 to 48 hours.

Thanks Russ - oh, another question: when my Cyberwings acct. gets set up, and I change the name servers at GoDaddy, is the change instantaneous, or does it take another 24-48 hrs. for my address to lead to Cyberwings?
