Multisite domain mapping issue (CNAME)

    Hello everyone,
    it’s my first time with WPMU and I’m trying to figure out how to make everything work, but I’m stuck on domain mapping.
    I’ll try to explain it with details.

    I own:
    mydomain.com
    mydomain.de
    mydomain.es
    mydomain.fr

    All of these domains have been bought with external domain service and have NS pointing to my server:
    NS1.myservedns.com
    NS2.myserverns.com

    I’ve enabled WPMU with subdomains so that blogs structure looks like:
    http://www.mydomain.com
    de.mydomain.com ID=2
    es.mydomain.com ID=3
    fr.mydomain.com ID=4

    I’ve mapped domains in WP superadmin panel so that blog with ID=2:
    de.mydomain.com correctly forwards to http://www.mydomain.de

    I’ve set CNAME for mydomain.de on my server so that
    www -> mydomain.com

    (A records of all domains are already pointing to the same IP, so I guess it’s not the correct choice, that’s why I’ve chosen CNAME)

    The problem is that typing http://www.mydomain.de it redirects to http://www.mydomain.com and not to the correct blog with ID=2.

    What am I doing wrong?

    Thanks in advance.
