On my ISP site, I want to allocate a domain name I have to my SM site. In the box CNAME Settings, Alias, do I put www.smugmug.com, or *******.smugmug.com? In the help files it mentions "How do I set up a CNAME record for my domain to point to domains.smugmug.com?". So I'm confused as to whether it should be domain.smugmug.com, or simply www.smugmug.com.
Thanks

EDIT. Think I might have answered my own question!
You will need to edit your existing setup so that your domains CNAME points to domains.smugmug.com instead of to www.smugmug.com. It must be exactly domains.smugmug.com do not put anything else in. DO NOT point your domain at yournickname.smugmug.com no matter how tempted you may be. It will not work.
