How to Create SubDomain?

I'm running Win2003 Server(Standard Edition)/IIS6.0.

(1) How do I create a subdomainname, like this:
www.SubDomainName.DomainName.com??

(2) Do I have to register the SubDomainName liek I had to register the
DomainName??

hey creating subdomains is really easy
if you need say xxx.mydomain.com
go to the IIS manager
create a new site
under the host header information name it xxx.mydomain.com
(website->advanced->edit-host header value)
don't forget to add the new site to your primary and secondary dns(both
forward and reverse)
it is something I have done numerous times. The only complex piece is
keeping dns updated, remember it can take several hours for the names to
replicate through the internet and during that time your new subdomain will
be unavailable from outside your local LAN.
