RE: domain pointing
you need to have the DNS servers of your host updated to point to the new ip address. Contact your web host about the change. If don't have a domain name yet, you will need to purchase one.

RE: domain pointing
you can use a service such as zoneedit.com if you don't want to run your own dns servers....

RE: domain pointing
Does that path exist? If not make the directorys as in the error and put you pages there or change the path in your virtual setup to point where ever you want
