Need Help - NameServers+Cpanel

    I've got a reseller account and purchased my own dedicated IP.

    I set up my nameservers so they direct to the correct Dedicated IP.

    Problem is whenever I try to log into the Cpanel, I am put into the Old
    Shared IP and not the new Dedicated IP.

    I've edited my DNS with the webhost manager "Edit DNS Zone" to point
    the cPanel etc, to the correct IP but it's still going to the old IP which
    is causing my site to show up as just empty directories, but when I log
    in via FTP I see all the my files.

    What am I doing wrong?

    Sometimes it takes around 48 hours for changes to DNS to appear on the internet. How long ago did you change your IP address?

    The DNS is propagating cause the website is showing up on that DNS.

    The cPanel and FTP aren't.

    Can you post your DNS zone file here? Just remember to change the IP address and domain if you don't want everyone to know what your site is.

    I think I messed up my settings completely.

    What I did was set my own host to my name servers, and edited my DNS Zone to match.

    While my site resolves properly to the DNS, my Cpanel, etc, wont go the the Dedicated
    IP it keeps going to the Shared IP.
