- Click on your domain
- Chose 'All Host Records' from the menu on the left
- Edit/create/delete CNAMEs as you will see fit.

Easy, eh?

;)

yup, got it, thanks

what is the different between doing a CNAME and a redirect url ?

A cname is an alias for a given FQDN (fully qualified domain name),
e.g. ftp.yourdomain.com cname of yourdomain.com

a Redirect instead is a pointer to any Url (e.g. ftp.yourdomain.com redirects to http://mydomain.com/index.html) :)
