Azurite on "[Plugin: WordPress MU Domain Mapping] Parked vs. Add-On Domains?"

Hi,

I have a domain that I registered a long time ago (let's call it Domain A, http://domainA.com), and made static PHP files. Well, it's time to move on to WordPress.

I created a subdomain for my existing WordPress Multisite install which is hosted with another domain name (http://domainB.mysite.com). Now I want to point the domain I already have at that WordPress install (domainA.com --> domainB.mysite.com... without revealing the "domainB.mysite.com" in the address bar)

The domain and host are registered at the same place. So Domain A is just a domain, while Domain B is both a domain and a host (a shared host, I might add). I want Domain A to point at the WordPress install for this specific subdomain/site hosted by Domain B.

But...is it possible to do so without revealing Domain B's URL?

I have Domain A in my cPanel as an "Add-On" domain. "Parked" Domain isn't an option for me at this time. I'm not sure if this has the same effect, especially since the Add-On Domain forces me to select a document root, which means it's still seeing a physical folder on my Domain B's host, thereby displaying old info. I can enable redirection and it'll show Domain B's WordPress install for the subdomain I want, but it shows the URL, too!

I'm pretty sure I've got all the DNS bits and CNAME set up properly, but I'm not sure what else I can do, or if I HAVE to utilize a Parked Domain. Anyone have any insight?
