I followed the instructions, but Verio doesn’t allowing mapping a CNAME to a domain that also redirects to a CNAME as I found out from this blog post.

Using IPtools, I learned that the subdomain.wordpress.com blog CNAME’s to lb.wordpress.com.

I updated the Verio settings to:

blog.tcosc.org. 86400 IN CNAME lb.wordpress.com.

and the sub-domain now works.
