two domain names

Hi
I have two domains (iravati.net and peachers.net) and they're both hosted on seperate servers, and, well, I'm totoally new to all of this stuff and I was just wondering, iravati.net is about to expire and i was curious, in order to save money, is it possible to have two domain names hosted on one server? and if so, how can I set that up? Thanks for any help

The domain is about to expire or the hosting is? If it's just the hosting, you can always forward the other domain to the appropriate folder under the other domain. Or...you can use an addon domain if your plan has that option.

the domain to iravati is about to expire. and I was looking in the control panel that I have for peachers, and it does have the option for 3 addon domains. I'm not exactly too sure how I get that to work though. I would totoally love to renew iravati.net though if I could have it hosted on peachers.

I tried it out, and put iravati.net in the spot for the addon domain, but when I typed in iravat.net in the url, it just looked the same, it didn't point to the folder it made in peachers. And I went into the control panel for the domain name for iravati.net and tried to get the nameserver to point to the ip addresses it had listed when i had put the name in the addon domain, but it didn't do anything either. Id really like to know exactly what I'm doing before I mess it up much more x3

Once my server gets going again (CPanel helped me kill part of it about an hour ago), I should be able to explain exactly what to do.

Yeah, a cpanel updated screwed something up. Support fixed it for me though.

Ok, if you go to the addon domain option, you can put in your domain. This domain has to have the nameservers the other one has. So, to have iravati.net point to peachers.net's space, you have to use the same name servers that peachers.net uses. It will take some time for it to propigate around the net though, as any domain change does, but it should be able to be pointed to the folder you want.
