    Have you tried contacting Canaca for support?

    In any case, when you go in to edit a DNS zone, you will see some blank lines at the bottom of the page. The first blank is the value. If you were adding an A record for a nameserver, you would put NS1 there (as an example). If adding a canonical name, you would put that there instead. "www" for example.

    For A records, select "A" and for cname records select "CNAME" from the dropdown list.

    Then, in the box to right, you would put the IP address.

    In most situations, you will not need to add anything in to the last two boxes on the far right.

    The CNAME entry should look like below.

    Eg to set mail1 as CNAME

    mail1 14400 IN CNAME domain.com.
