Hi all. I have a question about hosting a subdomain at Lunarpages and the rest of the site elsewhere. If this is the wrong place to ask this question, I'm happy to move it to the proper location. Here's my question:

I have an account with Lunarpages for my main domain (we'll call this domain mydomain.com). I am using a different registrar to manage a separate domain (let's call this one myotherdomain.com). I've setup myotherdomain.com in the Lunarpages CPanel interface as an add-on domain, and then I created a subdomain, subdomain.myotherdomain.com, also in the Lunarpages CPanel interface.

In theory, I should then be able to point either the A Record or the CNAME Record to that subdomain, so that the bulk of myotherdomain.com is hosted elsewhere, but subdomain.myotherdomain.com is hosted at Lunarpages. But I can't seem to get the DNS right. Does anyone have any suggestions on how (using an A or CNAME Record, or maybe there's a better way) to host a subdomain of an add-on domain successfully at Lunarpages, while not hosting the actual add-on domain there?

Thank you!
