Help with Vhost

Hi guys

I setup xamp years ago as a home server (I know it's not recommened)

I have 3 hosts working via No-IP I have no issues with access

I have just purchased a new Top Level Domain RGRoofing.UK from 1and1, I have renamed the DNS to Afriad.Org Servers, I think that it is what I needed?

I have setup my Vhost file to accept the new domain and the Hosts in windows.

If I type: rgroofing.uk in the address on the server machine, I can see my own index page (Says Hello)
If I type : www.rgroofing.uk I get a welcome to Afraid.org Page

If I access RGRoofing.uk on any other pc, I get the Afraid Welcome Page and same with www.RGRoofing.uk

I assume I have a setting somewhere that isn't setup correctly, but I have never used Xamp with a real domain

I get a blue login page for Ridge & Gable Roofing for both.
DNS just takes time to propagate.
You do not need to add anythong to your hosts file in windows.
