 * Please help!
 * Did I miss anything to have sub-domain work properly?
 * 404 showed up on WordPress subdomain admin page. Subdomain.mydomain.com page 
   is not the themes page, but a infomation page for web hosting INC.
    It was a 
   fresh installed Wp3.51.
 * Both .htaccess and wp-config.php edited following instraction of WP.
    Wildcard
   setup completed.

 * Any suggestions?

 * _You do not need domain mapping for this. Remove it._

 * The problem is how you created the subdomain with your webhost. Ask them how 
   to point a subdomain to your main install.

 * Thank you for your reply. I’ve got the second site run multisite smoothly as 
   it supposed. But not the the first site I made the first attempt, even after 
   I removed WP and re-installed. Same problem showed up as usual as it was with
   other browser.
 * Yes, I know that it is not WP’s issue, if I can have the Multisite running on
   the second site, but not the first one. Don’t know why.
 * It may not be server side problem, as well. wired problem. Thank you anyway.
