How do I use my Dreamhost account to host the files of a website under a domain name which is registered on another registrar?
I have a dreamhost account, I want to create there a folder and install my wordpress files but I don't want to use the domain name associated with my dreamhost account; I prefer to use a domain name that I own on a different registrar. (without transfering the domain name to dreamhost).

The blog I want to install will be accesible on my otherdomainname.com/blog

How do you manage such a DNS "redirection" on dreamhost?
