Point a subdomain with CNAME to a DDNS subdomain?
Solution 1:
I think I need to draw a diagram to understand what you're doing here, but to be honest, point your CNAME to the proper A record for the destination. Don't chain CNAMEs.
RFC1034 allows for chaining in a technical sense, but it is simply poor practice.
A similar question was asked previously, and it's worth looking at the discussion: Is a CNAME to CNAME chain allowed?
