    Yup. Set your CNAME to domains.smugmug.com and set an A-Record to our IP Address, per instructions here: http://www.smugmug.com/help/professional-accounts


    If you want us to do it for you, write our Help Desk, ATTN: Doc in the subject line .... send us your domain host UserID and set the password
    to something temporary like SmugTemp123. I will log in and make the
    changes or check the settings for you. When I am done you can reset the
    password.

    1. the name of your domain registrar
    2. login name to your domain
    3. change the password for your domain to smugtemp{insert_4_random_digits}

    Once we have made the changes, we will let you know so that you could
    change your password back.
