| Did you restart your named and apache services after you made some changes inside their configuration files?

| If you have some sort of a control panel, add that just like you would any other subdomain. I know this works with CPanel, but it should work with any others.
As far as the problem:
It looks like you've setup the dns entry properly, and setup apache properly.
Make SURE you've restarted both named (or whatever you're using to handle dns requests) AND apache (or whatever your using to handle http requests)
Also , note that just changing the subdomain entry in the named record isn't enough. You MUST change the serial as well.
If you've done all that and still can't see what you're looking for, then clear your own dns cache. If that still doesn't work, it's time to find a professional to do this for you.

| Obviously you didn't, otherwise it'd be working for you.
