    Hi there,

    I want to set up two virtual hosts one having a subdomain of the other:

    mysite.com
    subdomain.mysite.com

    I can do this by making sure that the mysite.com has a wildcard A Record (*) for the IP I want to use and then just creating a named-based birtual host in my Apache config.

    But what about CNAME reacords. Should I create one? Do I need to create one? What would be the advantage????

    Cheers
