directadmin and manual configuration

[stromboli2]

hi,
i'd like to use directadmijn for declarin domains and handle emails etc.. but I'd like to declare something manually inde /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf
now, when I declare mydomain.com in directadmin it creates mydomain.com related httpd.conf
if I want to add subdomains manually do I have to do it in the /etc/...httpd.conf or in te mydomain conf?
I declared one subdomain in the /etc httpd.conf file and it's not working. it takes the subdomain as the document root for the whole site.

If you are wondering why I want to edit httpd.conf manualy, there is several reasons: a. i have many things already configured in another httpd.conf that i'd like to traspass manualy in just one click.
b. everytime i create a subdomain directadmin creates a cgi-bin for it, i don't like this (can this be avoided?).
c. i like to edit somethings myself in the httpd.conf file.

cordially,
strom

Though I haven't tried it I believe that if you create a domain or subdomain manually in /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf above where the includes start, DA won't overwrite it.

But you must be sure to never set up a domain through DA with the same domain or subdomain name, or DA won't be able to restart the httpd daemon and all your domains will fail.

Of course if you set it up manually you'll have to set up everything else manually, such as DNS, email, etc., or none of them will work.
