My bro is using a service of a third party(say, X), with DNS addresses:

ns1.x.com
ns2.x.com


So, bro bought a domain name, say abc.com. And pointed the DNS addresses with the above ones.

Now, bro wants to create a subdomain, say mysite.abc.com with custom content. But this service provider X, doesn't offer hosting of files that we give to them for the subdomain. Instead, they said they have created a subdomain and is pointing to my server(say, with an IP: 123.99.2.123)

So, how do I add a subdomain for mysite.abc.com in my server? BTW, I'm having a VPS server, with root access.

So far, I can see that adding a subdomain is possible only if the main domain is added. What changes do I have to make in my server so that, when accessing mysite.abc.com, files from my server would be delivered?

Sorry, I am not sure whether I confused you. Let me know if you need me to rephrase the issue or explain it with visual examples or something.

Thank you
