creating subdomains

[jedivn]

How do you create a subdomain SUB.mydomain.com with Apache?
I am running Apache 1.3.27 on XP with NTFS.

Please help.

For testing, I add entries into the /etc/hosts file. This allows me to quickly configure virtual hosts without always running a DNS server. If you use this method, both the client and the server need to have entries.

For Windows NT-based clients, edit /winnt/system32/drivers/etc/hosts
