  Assuming that the base domain, www, and subdomain share the same IP address:

  @ A xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
  www CNAME @
  subdomain CNAME @

  will set up an A record for your base domain, and CNAMEs for www and subdomain, aliasing them to the base domain.

  Alternately, you can also do this:

  @ A xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
  www A xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
  subdomain A xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx

  to set up A records for the base domain, www, and subdomain.

  Additionally, you need to set up MX records to handle email.
