How do I setup the DNS for subdomains?

This is all screwed up.

 

I have two physical servers. The first server is where the domain name is pointed too.

 

The first server has subdomains that use a records to point to the second server. So, domain.com would be the first server, but control.domain.com is the second server.

 

On the second server I want to setup dynamic subdomains, without screwing up my existing subdomains. I have A records on both servers - *.domain.com A 72.29.86.138. These *should* be working, but I think the problem might have to do with the second one.

 

I set my ServerAlias to *.domain.com, and then explicitly created a new A record on the first server. It still didn't work, which would lead me to believe that either the second wildcard isn't working, or that neither are.

 

I'm not real sure what to do at this point. I don't really know how to narrow down the problem anymore - I might write my webhost for help. Any advice?
