First of all this tutorial/how to is written for those who have purchased a domain name through a registrar
Nameserver 1: ns1.trap17.com
Nameserver 2: ns2.trap17.com
Now that that's done, you're ready to change a few things in your trap17 cPanel. So log into your cPanel using http://your_trap17_subdomain.trap17.com/cPanel/
Then you go to Site Management -> Parked Domains

Then you of course get the Parked Domain screen. Here you have to "add" the domain. Mind you when adding the domain, don't type the www.

After you did this, it could take a lil while for the DNS servers to catch up (yeah, I think they're too slow LOL) and then you can use your new address
If you also want to add subdomains, it's fairly simple as well. I do wonder how they did this without cPanel. Anyhow, since you're still in cPanel (click on home in the top right corner OR click "back" which is just below your newly added domain) you simply go to Site Management -> Subdomains. cPanel will display your_domain.astahost.com in the drop down box, but if you take a look in that wee box, you should see your new domain there
Just select your domain and type whatever you want as subdomain.
eg. You want blog.abcdef.com as subdomain. You select abcdef.com from the drop down box and then type blog in the text box.
This will automatically create a directory with the name of your subdomain (eg. your subdomain is blog.abcdef.com then the directory will be blog) in your public_html folder
I know that to some this will seem completely redundant, but I know I had to ask when I set my domain up. I didn't wanna mess things up, so I can imagine some others may have the same issues
I did change the nameservers in the quote, as obviously in the original post they were pointing to astahost's nameservers.
In case you've just created your account, the DNS servers will not be updated, thus you will have to use the IP to get to cPanel. This info is available in your account info (which you should have saved
