  Not really Craft related, but: for this to work in Craft, you should first make sure Rackspace recognizes the url you want to use. They explain how to do this [here](http://www.rackspace.com/knowledge_center/article/using-cnames-with-cloud-files-containers).
  
  In short: create a CNAME record for your domain, pointing to your Rackspace domain. After doing that, change the display url for your asset source.
