url-rewriting

This is our scenario:

Our DNS is hosted by a company. They don't manage the DNS.
We use Zoneedit (www.zoneedit.com) to manage the DNS such as nameservers, CNAMEs, etc...
Then we have our web host where we just have our files hosted.

We have a subdomain created on zoneedit. We would like to do a URL rewrite so that subdomain.ourdomain.com is displayed as www.ourdomain.com/subdomain.

Do I use Zoneedit to do the URL rewrite or the web host or the DNS host?

I checked the Zoneedit docs but I could not find a way to do a URL rewrite. Need some advice.

Thanks

My DNS zone record appears to be degrading. NSLOOKUP on www.whatpub.org gives a timeout. Am I right in saying this means the two ZoneEdit nameservers I use (ns2.zoneedit.com & ns17.zoneedit.com) are not responding to requests? Cheers, Rob. >>> More
Does this NSLOOKUP timeout with ZoneEdit mean their DNS servers are down?

I'm using webforms with UrlRewriting.Net to rewrite pages, e.g. http://www.example.com/stuff.aspx?c=30 becomes http://www.example.com/stuff/30-this-stuff.aspx. It works in so far as the correct content is loading; however, none of the postbacks are working (mostly buttons on the page)… >>> More
