Problem Changing main domain

[slane]

Hi,

I'd like to change my main domain from water.x10hosting.com to samstuff.x10hosting.com

I've tried this via my account login
and then my account panel says my domain is samstuff.x10hosting.com and cpanel is samstuff.x10hosting.com:2082
but both of those give "cannot find server errors" when I try to load them in firefox.
and the water.etc pages still exist.

Do I have to wait or should it have worked? I searched in the forum but couldn't find a solution.

I have made these changes. I have also deleted the old photos.water.x10hosting.com DNS entry

Please flush your dns and clear your browsers cache.

Thanks Chris,

its sort of working except www.samstuff.x10hosting.com points to /home/slane/photos

If you goto
http://www.samstuff.x10hosting.com/

you'll see a little message stating where the index.html file is.
I mean I created an index.html file in /home/slane/photos that announces it is in that directory.

I am working on that as we speak. I am not seeing a dns zone for the photos.samstuff.x10hosting.com I will look and if i do not find it i will add that zone.

Hi Chris,
Thanks for your help.

don't worry about photos.samstuff.... just point samstuff.x10hosting.com to
/home/slane and I promise not to add another subdomain... ever!

I guess, worst comes to worst I can just live with everything in /home/slane/photos

Thanks again for your help and thanks to GamingX. He's been great!

Edit:
Actually I don't think I can live with everything in /home/slane/public_html/photos
because fantastico installs everything in
/home/slane/public_html

I'd have to install Joomla manually in that case!
Edit:
OK. At the risk of creating more confusion .. I have created a symbolic link between /home/slane/public_html/photos and /home/slane/public_html
Seems to work! Touch wood!
