nameserver

I added the Dreamhost's nameservers like 12 hours ago to:

I entered to the following panel:

Nameservers -> Set Nameservers (I have specific nameservers for my domains)

and added Dreamhost's nameservers liek this:

Nameserver 1: NS1.DREAMHOST.COM
Nameserver 2: NS2.DREAMHOST.COM
Nameserver 3: NS3.DREAMHOST.COM

So now in the admin panel I see this:

Nameservers
Nameservers:  (Last Update 2/10/2011)
NS1.DREAMHOST.COM
NS2.DREAMHOST.COM
NS3.DREAMHOST.COM

But I get this when I run the analysis tools:

Attention Required! There are critical issues
Accessing Your Web Site
Accessing Your Web Site
Properly configuring your domain name and hosting account ensures that visitors can access your site.

Did I do something wrong or I have to wait 24 to 48 hours?

(Dreamhost does display my page because I can access the other domain name I bought together with the hosting)

(By the way, if everyone uses the same nameserver, how will go GoDaddy know which is the hosting space that I purchased among all others)?

Thanks in advance.
