quick question
Is it possible to change DNS to a subdomain when the domain is hosted in a VPS?
What about for a dedicated server or a shared hosting?
thanks

What you meant by "change DNS to a subdomain when the domain is hosted in a VPS" ?
There is no big difference about where exactly your DNS service is located, it will be working pretty simple everywhere.

For example I have hosted domain.com in my vps and I want to host name.domain.com to an other host (by changing DNS)
That's what I was trying to say

Oh. then sure you can. There are 2 options for this - first you can manually create needed 'A' and 'MX' and other records for your name.domain.com, or you can simply create 1-2 NS records for your name.domain.com pointing to another server, and create needed DNS zone with all parameters there. Both ways will be working just fine.

to use subdomains, you will have to configure your BIND dns server,
which is located in /var/named/
if you are looking into website virtual hosting, its within your httpd.conf / vhosts configuration, anyhow the domain must resolve before you try to configure you apache named base virtual hosts.
kind'a techi issue if you dont know what i am talking about, you should consult with your provider, or find a friend/tech who can do that for you.
another option, is to seek for managed service.
