First of all - you don't seem to be in the hosted member group. How can you change your subdomain, if you're not hosted here ?

Secondly, for subdomain change, you need to make an application in the proper forum: http://www.astahost.com/free-web-hosting-d...hange-f103.html

For the record, I have applied for hosting, and have been accepted.

For some reason, I am not in the hosted member group, and thus I do not have access to forums such as "Free Web-Hosting: Domain Change."

Am I suppose to manually add myself to this group, "Hosted Members Group?"

Well, the reason you're not listed as being in the Hosted Group is because your hosting token is still unused. Which means you have not made your account yet. That's why you're not listed as being in that group and why you're not getting access to the Hosted Support.

To get yourself hosted go to www.astahost.com/process/ and create an account. If everything works fine then you should be in the [hosted] members group after that. Hope I helped.

Ok. So I went through through the process -- A success.

So I uploaded my website onto the server.. but my Profile still says I am only a Member...

I don't get the flashy "Hosted Members" title.. or any of that luxury!

My Website is http://ipodexpert.astahost.com...

I do have a website... but... Astahost says I don't? Could it be because I used a different username to sign up with Cpanel?

"Noonster22" was too long, so I just used "Noonster" instead.. Could this be a potenitally bad thing?

What messages did you receive after creating your account ? From what I can see your hosting token hasn't been spent. You need to go to http://www.astahost.com/process and go through the account creation process once again if your subdomain is not working.

The cPanel username doesnt have any problems with any kinds of names you enter, as long as it doesnt contain spaces and non-standard characters and is upto 8 characters long.

I didn't quite understand this.. If you own a domain name and wish that to be linked to your asta account, you need to enter that in the domain/subdomain part and disregard any warnings you might get about this domain not being part of trap17 or astahost. Apart from that, you need to go to your domains Control Panel and set the nameserver records to that of astahost: ns1.astahost.com and ns2.astahost.com

Your subdomain is working - so what exactly did you mean by astahost not reporting your site to exist ?

For more information on the steps to be followed during account creation process, read this: http://www.astahost.com/how-activate-new-h...ount-t3608.html

When I created my account at http://www.astahost.com/process, it appears everything is working.

I reach up until the point it says "This may take a very long time... [Do not reload].."

So I wait, and wait...

And until finally a window pops up and says "This Document Contains no Data.." (Since I use Firefox)...

On Internet Explorer it would read "Cannot Contact Server"

I have NEVER seen:

Result: Account Creation Complete. Account is ready on the server.
Fininalizing Process.
Editing Data.
Done.
Transfering Data and showing final page.

I would just get a message such as "Cannot Contact Server."

However, when I go to the Cpanel website, and log in... my new account is there... My new website is there...

So although it didn't finish the process completely... the account is still created.

Any comments are welcomed.

By this I mean:

1. In my profile I am still listed as a Member.
2. I do not have access to the Hosted Members section. (I can not post there).
