If you're running IIS on the machine, that indicates that you're using the machine for webhosting as well. Are you using it just for development?

In our regular webhosting system, you can set up a subdomain through the Domains page, and point it to a folder that you want to be used for that subdomain.

You ignored my question and you are switching to a different topic.

IIS and Apache can't be run at the same time on the same IP and port. You would need to either choose only one of these to run at once, or configure one of them to run on a different IP/port.
