I've got my domain site.com running on EC2, using Elastic IP and Route 53. I want to park site.net so that it resolves to the same site..

I've looked up Migrating an Existing Domain to Route 53 in the docs, but can't find mention of how to add a second domain!

I figured I'd have to create an A record, but when I do so, the record is created site.net.site.com .. not quite what I'm after!

I've also done searches for mixes of 'route 53', 'park domain', 'addon domain', 'second domain', but no dice...

My prior experience is with cPanel and Plesk, so I'm a bit lost!

Any pointers would be appreciated! TIA
