Abyss Web Server is just a web server. It cannot manage or add domain names. What you need is to contact your domain registrar to know how to buy a domain or a subdomain and how to redirect it on the URL you want.

You can do that in a simple way using Abyss Web Server and a regular HTML page.
Create the "you" directory and in it create an index.html file which code is the following:
Code:

<HTML>
<HEAD>
<TITLE>Redirecting you to you.mydomain.com</TITLE>
<META HTTP-EQUIV=Refresh CONTENT="0; URL=http://you.mydomain.com/">
</HEAD>
<BODY>
If you still see that page, click <A HREF="http://you.mydomain.com/">here</a>.
</BODY></HTML>

Simple and efficient. Isn't it ? :D

i think he means he wants http://you.com/folder accessible as folder.you.com and will all his files/dir within it so you could access image.gif that was in you.com/folder/images/image.gif as

folder.you.com/images/image.gif
basicaly path forwarding while making it a subdomain.
I heard of some scripts that can do this but don't know any off the top of my head.
