It may take up to 3 days before your dns name shows up in the TLD servers, or if you already had your domain name it can take up to 3 days before your dns changes take place. So be patient if it takes a little while before you can get into your cPanel.
Usually it will begin to work within the first 24 hours, We've seen it take up to 48.

Some DNS configuration tools may require this configuration:

CNAME |
host1.ComputerSecurityResearch.com |
@ |
MX |
mail.YourDomainNameHere |
* |
CNAME |
host1.ComputerSecurityResearch.com |
What these lines mean are:
1. @ stands for "this domain",
for example @ in our DNS stands for "SecureHostingServices.com", CNAME tells
the DNS server that this record's address is really a pointer to another DNS
record. This first line tells the DNS server to use the real address
that host1.ComputerSecurityResearch.com resolves to.
2. The MX record
tells mail servers where to send mail. Line two instructs mail servers
to resolve "mail.YourDomainName" and send mail there.
When the email servers go to resolve "mail.YourDomainName"
they will use record 3.
3. * matches on any host name for this domain,
so mail.YourDomainName, ftp.YourDomainName, www.YourDomainName,
etc... will all point to the DNS record host1.ComputerSecurityResearch.com,
which resolves to our hosting server.
These CNAME records allow us to move
your service to other servers as needed without you suffering any downtime or
having to change your DNS.
