    Well, it depends on what you want to do.

    If your friend is willing then he could host the new domain on a new account on your friend's server.

    What do you intend to do ? Would this be a different project or it would be an alias to the kilegates.com in that no matter what domain name they use, it would lead to the same site ?

    it will be entirely different site. Both will still be about the Xbox 360 tho. I may change Kilegates.com into a reg blog about me. Don't know. My friend isnt on so I guess I can forward the domain name to my site or something.

    Did you friend provide you with a control panel such as Cpanel ? If so, you can set up an 'Add-on' domain so that you can host the new domain on a separate site.

    You cannot just forward the domain name as it is as for that to happen, the server would need to know that the site exist.

    ah okay yeah there is a cpanel and I tried add-on but I got this error. Bind reloading on host using rndc zone: [kilegates.com] The subdomain, xblfrenzy.kilegates.com has been added.

    Error from park wrapper: The domain you have specified does not conform to domain name rules.

    Removed xblfrenzy.kilegates.com Server at line: 1199. Removed Entry from httpd.conf Bind reloading on host using rndc zone: [kilegates.com] The subdomain, xblfrenzy.kilegates.com has been removed.

    http://www.xblfrenzy.com could not be setup. The subdomain xblfrenzy.kilegates.com was not setup either.

    Okay, this is very simple. In your Domain Name Registrar, under Domain Name Server, set the new domain to use the same DNS Server as kilegates.com . Then wait an hour and try it again with the add-on domains. It appears that the domain name needs to be using your friend's DNS Server in order to add the domain name to it.

    If you do not know what they are, here it is
