A subdomain configuration is very similar to a domain name configuration. The only difference is that the subdomain entry is tied to the corresponding domain name lookup. A request for the subdomain (e.g. http://subdomain.domain.com) will be routed to a DNS server containing the DNS information for the parent domain (domain.com). Once the DNS record for the subdomain is resolved to a particular IP address, the request is sent to the web server listening on that IP address. The web server can now find the request to the particular website based on the subdomain name in the host header of the request object.
The following image shows a defualt catalog configuration for a subdomain using SSL. You can find this file in your NXLCart or osCommerce instalation by going to catalog/includes/configure.php

The following image shows a defualt admin configuration for a subdomain using SSL. You can find this file in your NXLCart or osCommerce instalation by going to catalog/admin/includes/configure.php

If you choose not to use SSL, simply set the ENABLE_SSL_CATALOG defines to false.
