Wildcard DNS | Domain | Subdomain

Hi!
Can anybody tell me what does it takes to get a website with "wildcard
dns" configured and properly functional.

I read about wildcard DNS and the following are my findings -:

1. Need to add a A type record [as my hosting company is godaddy and
they doesn't support CNAME]
2. Add ServerAlias in VirtualHost of httpd.conf
3. Upload .htaccess with necessary modifications.

I am using CakePHP and i have tried performing all the three steps.
But whenever I type something like
xyz.domain.com [say domain.com is my domain] in the URL I get a "404
Error-Page not found".

I would really appreciate if anyone would let me know what exactly I
need to do to make this working.

Thanks.
