hey,
i am trying to work with a multisite-network using subdomains without dns-wildcard (because my provider doesn't allow it).
what do i have to do, when manually adding the subomains (f.e. demo.domain.xx) in my provider-backend (i use hosteurope) and creating a new blog in the network with this domain to make it work?
PLEASE HELP!

You should create an entry on your dns provider for each subdomain on the section called A/AAAA Records pointing to the hosting server.

wow, thanks for the quick reply. i did so but it doesn't work.
here is my example:
WordPress installation: http://spendenkiosk.de
Should-work subdomain: http://demo.spendenkiosk.de
perhaps i did get my hosting server wrong? how do i know if I'm right?

Oki, that's working properly. If your ping any of these domains, both point to the same server (178.77.85.78).
Now, you need a proper config at WordPress leve. Do you have network enabled with subdomain? Checkout official documentation if you need the basics:

Of course. If you have access to the server (Apache, etc.), sure I could check some things and look at possible gaps.
If you want to follow this thread privately, email at imedina@grosshat.com.

I've being having problems sending emails to you. I've checked your network config on WordPress, and now I need to check your '.htaccess' and 'wp-config.php' files. Give me access to the host, or just send me that by mail. :)

Do you manage the config of Apache? Do you know if you have a virtual host configured with an alias pointing to *.spendenkiosk.de?

I sent the files via mail, thanks! And yes, i do know that we are having a virtual server managed and cannot point to *.spendenkiosk.de :(
If you created the subdomains server-side, make sure there is no actual folder on the server.
also, there's no need to email other members anything when your htaccess can be pasted in here or at pastebin.
