CNAME, domain going to someone else's Smugmug

DKwan

So I set up a CNAME record and have it point to www.smugmug.com, like what it says to do in http://www.smugmug.com/help/professional-accounts, so photo.dkwan.com is supposed to take users to my Smugmug site, right? Well it's taking people to Sarah Martin's Smugmug site. I don't know who that is. How do I have it point to my site, dkwan.smugmug.com?

Well, that's different! Yep, it sure does!

In your Smugmug Customization, did you enter photo.dkwan.com in the Domain box under account settings?

DKwan

Ooo, I did not! Thanks for reminding!

Keep in mind, it could take 24-48 hours to propagate and work right, but usually it doesn't. I think the time consuming part is already working, being that we got a lovely view of another Smugger's page already.

EDIT: Just tried. It works! You look NOTHING like Sarah. BTW, I think that's the best Avatar I've seen on Dgrin.
