I want to I change the main domain for my web hosting account, ie I am currently at currentdomain.com and I want to switch the main domain to newdomain.org. Both domains are registered and resolving to my account at the moment. Can this be done through cPanel or is this something admin have to do?

This has to be done from our end. open a ticket for our billing department and they will take care of it.

Wouldn't it be easier just to park it?

he may need to replace domain for some specific reason. If you wish to completely get rid of the old domain then you need to allow it to expire and use a completely new domain.

Ah, i got the wrong end of the stick. The part where he said

"Both domains are registered and resolving to my account at the moment."

There was nothing wrong with your reply as he can consider both options. Either park the new domain and forget the main domain or get the domains swapped. getting them swapped would be better if he wants to get rid of the old domain completely.
