  Hi there!

  You shouldn’t need to edit the CNAME records to point your domain to another site – updating your NS should work:

  If you need to set the CNAME only, can you give us more information into what you’re trying to accomplish and what the end result would be? Once we have that information, we’ll be better able to advise a solution.

  Thanks!
