subdomain

I have a domain parked.com which is parked onto real.com.

I have created the subdomain m.parked.com by editing parked.com's named file:

m 14400 IN A  ip-address
www.m 14400 IN A  ip-address

This works somewhat: if I go to m.parked.com it redirects to http://m.parked.com/cgi-sys/defaultwebpage.cgi

This is my question:

I would like to redirect this subdomain to real.com as that is the domain it is parked on. I do not know how to do this as parked.com does not have its own .htaccess file, etc. (due to it being a parked domain) so I can't do any mod_rewrite magic.

Can anyone help me?

Thanks
