you need to ensure that the nameserver of your free domain are pointing to the server hosting your account. You can simply find its nameservers from http://webtools.eukhost.com/domain_whois.php

Verify nameservers of your main domain and see if the free domain points to the same server or not. If not then request our support team to point your domain name to your existing account.

Once done then you can add your free domain as an addon domain from the control panel which will make a subdomain on the main domain and the contents of those subdomain will be what you will see on the addon domain. You can understand concept of addon domain and parked domain from our knowledgebase located at http://www.eukhost.com/support/knowledgebase/

My "FREE" Domain came with my EUK Copper Hosting. I simply want to point it to a subdomain instead of the Home directory.
I cannot find where to do this on my CPanel?
HEEELLLPPP!

add your domain name as a addon domain from the control panel and make sure that the username and directory name you choose to setup the addon domain is the one which you have for the subdomain. This way your addon domain will resolve from the subdomains directory.
