OK,now that you have your new subdomain resolved in an IP Address by a DNS server, the next step is configuring your web server appropriately so it can handle the requests coming from the net.The webserver can be Apache or Internet Information Service (IIS).We'll start with IIS.

1. Go to ControlPanel > Administrative Tools > Internet Information Service and right click on Web Sites and choose New > WebSite. (Fig 1)
2. On the page below (fig 2) ,Type the name you want your sub-domain to appear
in the IIS Manager.You can give it any name here, but it's better name it like the actual URL

3.  In the next window (fig 3),leave the IP Address All Unassigned and the Port 80 as default. Then type the real name of your sub-domain in the Host header for this web site box,make sure that it's the same as in zoneedit configuration. Yhen click Next

4. You  have to enter the path of the home directory in the window below.(FIG 4) .I suggest to make a new folder inside the parent site folder and name it as the sub-domain name.You can click browse and find it. Leave the Allow anonymous access to this Web site checked if you want anyone to access the site or else they'll be prompted for credentials.Click Next
