Looked at a couple of other threads, but didn't really get it.

How do I make a subdomain (ie www.domain.tld/dir points to dir.domain.tld)?

BIND? Apache?

Look up mod_rewrite for apache.

I did it using virtual hosts in apache's conf file.

Example:

<VirtualHost *>
DocumentRoot /document/dir
ServerName sub.yourdomain.com
</VirtualHost>

Okay, I'm currently using virtual hots. Do I do this in the existing virtual host section or in a brand new one?

Does DNS need reconfiguring?

Brand new one, and no, VirtualHosts is all handled by apache, so no DNS reconfiguring...
