Subdomain on different server

I have two reseller hosting accounts, one with Clook (root domain
ironclad.co.uk) and one with Have-Host (root domain rogerhoughton.com).

I have a domain on Clook (www.thebath.net) and I want to create a
subdomain for it on Have-Host. I therefore created one in Cpanel called
http://test.thebath.net and set it to redirect to a new account on
Have-Host (user name, bathtest). This sort of works but I get the
destination domain name in the address bar:
http://universe.have-host.com/~bathlist

If I do it the other way around, i.e. create a subdomain for a domain
on Have-Host (test.bathads.co.uk for www.bathads.co.uk) and redirect it
to a new account on Clook I get the destination address
http://www.ironclad.co.uk/~bathtest

Is it possible to get them to use the source address in the address
bar? (Or have I gone
about this the wrong way anyway?)

(Also, why does it use my root domain with Clook but universe.have-host
with Have-Host? Is that a Have-Host issue?)

Roger,

On our servers you would need to create a sub-domain on the on the hosting account of that domain e.g. http://subdomain.myhosteddomain.com. But this just points to a folder (directory) on your existing myhosteddomain.com hosting account.

You can’t make a sub domain from an external domain http://subdomain.someotherdodomian.com

But you can put whatever re-direct into that folder to take you anywhere, but the URL will change accordingly.

Why has my (Re:) reply e-mail reply spawned a new thread?

One possibility is this: if you were replying to mail that was sent
from the old forum, those e-mail messages were stored in the old
database without their corresponding headers. When I moved them into
the new system, they did not have the necessary keys to link them
back to their real parents.

Naturally, this problem will resolve as soon as we move past the
boundary between the two systems. But I am also working on a hack to
patch over the problem.

That’s what I was beginning to think. That rather defeats the object of
using a sub domain, though. However if I set up web forwarding for a
domain name with my domain host I can set what appears in the
destination address bar. Is it not possible to do the same thing at the
hosting level?
