i have my own .info domain and was wondering if i should delete my koyut.smokyhosts.com subdomain. Or what should I do so that my subdomain redirects to my .info domain? How do you park a domain in DA?

Just go to your client section and go to domain administration to add another domain name to your account. No need to delete the existing subdomain.thesmokylounge.com name for that.

I've already added my TLD domain. Is is okay if I delete my subdomain? And how do I make koyut.thesmokylounge.com point to my .info domain?

Do not delete the subdomain name, i need it to maintain the accounts.
You can go to site forwarding area of your directadmin control panel and make the changes from there.

Last question: I can delete the domain folder of koyut.thesmokylounge.com in the file manager to conserve space?

You cannot delete it coz it is your root folder, it will be automatically deleted when you delete the subdomain name. And either ways, it hardly occupies any space as it takes space only to store the stats files and nothing else which might take hardly a couple of MBs.
So it is not recommended to delete that folder.

Okay thanks SHadmin. I've made the .info domain as my default domain. I'll just leave thesmokylounge.com as it is.

Yes, it is extremely easy to addon your own domain name. Just go to domain administration in your directadmin control panel and add it from there.

Thank you SHAdmin.
after setup my own domain i found the default page is
"This IP is being shared among many domains.
To view the domain you are looking for, simply enter the domain name in the location bar of your web browser.
"
Why is not the index.html?
