I have a free account then I parked my registered domain cause I thought it would show what I've done on the free account. However, I still get the message saying it's waiting for the ISP to do something with the DNS cache. I've tried the DNS flush several times over the past couple of days to no avail. How long does it take and am I correct in the assumption that the parked domain will show the free domain content?

I cannot locate a Free Hosting Account linked to this Forum Account.
cPanel username? Main Domain? Your registered Domain?

You are correct that a parked domain would show the same content as your free x10hosting domain.

What error do you get when trying to add the domain as parked in your account? And what is the doman in question?
Once you have set the domain to use our name servers at your registrar it shouldn't be more then a few hours tops before you can add it, though in extreme cases it can take up to 48 hours, but that is very rare.

http://www.motorhead69.com is the registered domain name that I have parked. Following is the message that it tells me when I go to that site:

Your website is currently being setup on our servers, this page is temporary until your ISP updates its DNS cache. You may be able to speed up this process byflushing your DNS.

The free site is http://motorhead69.x10.mx and I am still working on that site but there is content there.

Your custom domain URL works fine for me.

but if I type www.motorhead.com it works fine. I thought that it would be interchangeable. am I wrong in thinking that?
