I would like to know how can I add a cname to redirect one domain name with and without www.

In Enom I always use @ but I can't do it in Cpanel.
Thanks in advance.

If you're talking about doing redirects (i.e. redirecting users who visit domain.com to www.domain.com) you need to deal with mod_rewrite rules not DNS. I'm just guessing here as I'm not too clear on your question.

I'm talking about a customer who want to host his domain name in mobileme service. I setup a cname zone to web.me.com. but it only works if I go to www.domainname.com and not to domainname.com.

I know this can solved by adding a redirect in htaccess but it would be most usefully if I could do it by editing its dns in the case of that domain does not have a hosting plan.

Thanks for your help.

The record for domainname.com needs to be set to an ip address. If the mobileme service supports this, then it will work. Otherwise it will need to redirect. You can't use a cname for domainname.com without breaking all of the other records.
