Subdomain directory question

Hey, I'm almost positive this has to have been answered before, but I couldn't find anything...

I own nbgames.net. I want to make a subdomain, test.nbgames.net, to play with some of my server tech.

Where do I put my subdomain folder, and how do I configure my settings for the following scenario?

For example, if I go to http://test.nbgames.net/test.htm, it would forward to http://nbgames.net/test/test.htm

How would I set it up so it will leave the URL intact and display http://test.nbgames.net/test.htm?

You seem to be creating a redirect. Just create a subdomain from the subdomain menu in cpanel, and it would be set up automatically, nothing else involved.

Ah, excellent. Thanks a lot. I don't know what I was thinking.

Setting up subdirectory redirects is a good way of hiding an affiliate link
