Everything has to go through my cPanel console. I have something called
parked domains:

'Domain pointers allow you to "point" or "park" additional domain names
to your existing hosting account.'

'Domains must be registered with a valid registrar before they can be
parked. In addition, they will not be functional unless they are
configured to point to your DNS servers.'
