I don't know if the Canonical Name is the same as CName or not, or what it is, sorry :-/

rebs, I'm not an expert on this but I'll provide what I do:

I pay for a web host for my website, and to host some others. I had to change my nameservers away from what they were (which in your case is domain.com ones). I was unfortunately disappointed to learn that I could not directly do total DNS control of my website anymore (nameservers, cnames, etc.), so whenever I want some of that altered, I send a support ticket in and they do it for you.

If I were you, I'd contact your web host to see what you can do about DNS management.

It has a box and above it it says Canonical Name What does that mean?
It's shortened to mean "CNAME" record - that's what you're looking for. :)

I changed my name servers to 000webhosting so i could get free web hosting but i need the name servers to be pointing to the original ones on domain.com so I cant set it up.

Actually, you should still be able to, though you'll need to do it through 000webhosting.

Do 000webhosting use Cpanel? Or some other kind of control panel that lets you control your web hosting?
