I have created a CNAME mapping www and www2 to knowledgegems.99k.org.
And the CNAME mapping transfers me to zymic, but zymic is giving an 404 error. I can directly access knowledgegems.99k.org
I posted the help request to Google Helps and got this response,

You're doing it wrong.
You want to setup domain forwarding or redirecting subdomains (GoDaddy
domains come with 99 subdomain redirects not sure what enom provides).
CNAME records are for resolving host names to server IPs. Not for
redirecting web pages.
Why what you are trying to doesn't work, is that the IP that
knowlegegems.99k.org resolves to is a server that only expects certain
domain names. If that IP is called by www.knowlegegems.99k.org as its
host, the server has no idea what to do. Hence the 404. Redirects
simply bounces www.knowlegegems.99k.org over to knowlegegems.99k.org
so that the server IP never is sent the domain www.knowlegegems.99k.org
and never needs to freak out with a 404.
