Setting up a sub domain in IIS

[lexx2gee]

Hi all,

I have a website at

http://www.thegladecornwall.co.uk

and I want to set up a sub domain test.thegladecornwall.co.uk

I thought it would be as simple as adding it to the host headers but this does not work... I am puzzled???

Any ideas

Hi Chris,

thanks for the info but how do I add a DNS CNAME record?

Cheers

[ChrisHirst]

depends on your DNS server and who controls it

are you using your ISPs DNS servers? If so they will need to create it

The DNS servers listed for this domain name are:

ns34.1and1.co.uk and ns33.1and1.co.uk

You'll need to add the record on them. If you don't have access to them directly, you'll need to contact their admin to add it for you.
