CNAME help

I have a domain name www.abc.com
I want visitors to be directed to my actual site at www.xyz.com. Can I do this by simply creating CNAME record for domain xyz.com like:
www.abc.com CNAME www.xyz.com
or must I do it using a frame-forwarding domain with its own DNS records pointing to www.xyz.com
Plesk doesnt seem to want to create a CNAME record like that, something about one already exists, but it doesnt.
Thanks.
 
Try this:
If you have an .HTACCESS file in the root folder of your abc.com domain (/httpdocs?)...

insert this line at the top of the file:- redirect permanent / http://www.xyz.com
