I left a pointer to my IP address in the nameservers at godaddy.
Then I added the following at the end of my httpd.conf file:
####### =====================================
####### The first VirtualHost section is used
##### for requests without a known server name.
##### =========================================
<VirtualHost *>
ServerAdmin my-logs@some.com
DocumentRoot "/home/www/htdocs"
ServerName syvert.la3sg.net
ErrorLog /var/log/httpd-error.log
CustomLog /var/log/httpd-acc.log.syvert
combined
</VirtualHost>
############ MIDTSETER.COM ###
<VirtualHost *>
ServerAdmin my-logs@some.com
DocumentRoot "/home/www/htdocs/my.com"
ServerName my.com
ErrorLog /var/log/httpd-error.log
CustomLog /var/log/httpd-acc.log combined
</VirtualHost>
<VirtualHost *>
ServerAdmin my-logs@some.com
DocumentRoot "/home/www/htdocs/my.com"
ServerName www.my.com
ErrorLog /var/log/httpd-error.log
CustomLog /var/log/httpd-acc.log combined
</VirtualHost>
<VirtualHost *>
ServerAdmin my-logs@some.com
DocumentRoot "/home/syvert/samba"
ServerName programs.my.com
ErrorLog /var/log/httpd-error.log
CustomLog /var/log/httpd-acc.log combined
</VirtualHost>
<VirtualHost *>
ServerAdmin my-logs@some.com
DocumentRoot "/music"
ServerName music.my.com
ErrorLog /var/log/httpd-error.log
CustomLog /var/log/httpd-acc.log combined
</VirtualHost>
This way I can add as many "subdomains" as I wish. I also have a nice
systematic upset for adding webalizer and mrtg statistics.
Good luck from Kjell
