[Tfug] subdomains

[klsmith]

I'm confused.  What does one call it when:

 - You have a main site - www.mysite.com which is the documentroot
/web/www.mysite.com/

- you want tucson.mysite.com which is documentroot
/web/www.mysite.com/tucson/

I know the apache docs make it appear that a subdomain is a virtual host,
However I've always understood a subdomain to be a name added to the front
of your domain inplace of www.
