Hi Chris.
I am using the ehcp control panel system so it did most of the setup for me. what i have sofar that i think is heading in the right direction is:
in the apache2.conf file i have added
ServerAlias *.mydomainname.com
and in the 'custom DNS' area of ehcp i have added this record:
*.{domainname}. IN A {webip}
and also
*.{domainname}. IN CNAME {domainname}.
the URL www.mydomainname.com is what im trying to achieve for any random keyword that is used.
right now www.mydomainname.com and mydomainname.com display the same webpage.
I want
xxxx.mydomainname.com
somethingxxxx.mydomainname
anything.mydomainname.com
to also work in the same fashion. This is the requirement for the drupal subdomain module im trying to install. (http://drupal.org/project
does that help? what other info should i provide? thanks for your help

Kind of difficult to help without knowing what difficulty you're having with it.
The record normally looks like this:
* IN A WhatEverIPAddress
I couldn't tell you how to add that without knowing what DNS system we're dealing with.
