Am not much good at all the term used here maybe i can post what i want to edit and one of you guys might just give me the direct way to go about this.
this is what i need to do.
Note: These instructions refer to Apache webserver.
Add the following line to httpd.conf VirtualHosts section for your domain:
ServerAlias www.yourdomainname.com yourdomainname.com *.yourdomainname.com
Again, if you are on a shared hosting and don't have access to httpd.conf file, and no means in your control panel to edit your VirtualHosts section, then you must ask help from your hosting support.

Are you trying to add a wildcard domain to your main domain as a parked domain? If so, you could instead go to /var/cpanel/userdata/username/domain.com file (or sub.domain.com if it's a subdomain) and add the *.yourdomainname.com entry into the serveralias line in the file. Of note, username is your cPanel username, and domain.com is your domain name.
You'd also want to add *.yourdomain.com into /var/cpanel/userdata/username/main file for the parked domains section or addon domain section (whichever this one happens to be).
After adding the details, you'd run the following:

Sorry, the day you'd asked for help, we were having issues replying on the forums. After that, I was off shift and didn't see the replies.
Which operating system do you use? If you use Windows, you can get a copy of putty at this location:
http://the.earth.li/~sgtatham/putty/latest/x86/putty.exe
After you've grabbed a copy of the program, then for the host enter the server's IP or hostname (the full hostname such as server.domain.com). For the username on the connection, enter root, then enter the root password when prompted.
