Nameservers and Subdomains

I'm a bit confused about Plesk 8's ability to use our own nameservers.

When setting them up I make the necessary changes to the DNS and the domains work without problems but all subdomains become inaccessible.

Other than the DNS settings am I missing a file or files that need to be edited that will enable domains and subdomans?

Although we have reverted to our hosts nameservers for the moment, this is the setup we had when attempting to use our own nameservers causing the loss to subdomains..
Host Record type Value
<domain>. NS ns1.mydomain.com.
<domain>. NS ns2.mydomain.com.
<domain>. A <ip>
<domain>. MX (10) mail.<domain>.
<domain>. MX (20) mysecondmailserver.com.
<domain>. TXT v=spf1 a mx ptr ip4:<ip>/24 include:<domain>. ~all
<ip> / 24 PTR <domain>.
ftp.<domain>. CNAME <domain>.
mail.<domain>. A <ip>
ns1.<domain>. A xx.xxx.xxx.xx
ns2.<domain>. A xx.xxx.xxx.xx
webmail.<domain>. A <ip>
 
Do you mean subdomains other than ftp, mail, webmail (which you have listed)? Although I don't see the usual
Code:
[b]*.<domain>.   CNAME   <domain>.[/b]
entry in your list.
