Hi, you do not need to create A record.

Just create a CNAME for www, something like

<leave blank or @ or * depending on your provider> CNAME <yourloginname>.rivcash.com

In this way you will have yourdomain.com and/or www.yourdomain.com showing your whitelabel

Hi sashadimitri,

fetish.hornyteensoncam.net. 3600 IN CNAME sashadimitri.rivcam.com

please double check your DNS record, map it to <yourlogin>.rivcash.com and not <yourlogin>.rivcam.com

Bye
