Forwarding a sub-domain to a different IP?

Hey all,

thought I'd ask around since google didn't help me that much.

I have a Plesk server running VMWare, with one virtual machine running Windows Server 2003.

Now, I'd like a sub-domain to be forwarded to that VM (so basic port-forwarding to a specific IP), but I'm wondering if it's even possible?

In case it's not, I'd be glad to hear all of your ideas for this. Even if it means using a dedicated domain for the VM, I'm up for that, but I'd rather use a sub-domain.

Thanks in advance!
 
Should be really easy. Just edit the dns for the domain you want to use and create an entry for your subdomain:

subdomain.domain.com. A 192.168.1.1
 
Its really easy to do. Just edit the dns for that domain and create an A record to for the subdomain you want to point to an ip. Like if you want

server2003.domain.com create an A record in your dns to point to the ip you want.
