You mean you have the domain mydomain.com and want to also have
foo.mydomain.com? I think you want a subdomain. Or perhaps you want a
hostname. Either way you need a DNS entry, on whatever server is
authoritative for mydomain.com.

I assume this is for a web server? If your web server is already called
foo.mydomain.com, you don't need to do much for the former - perhaps
use an alias directive if mybuddys-stuff is not in the normal document
root (I'm assuming apache). For the second, you need the extra DNS name,
and you need to look into name based virtual hosting.

You need to read about DNS and about configuring your web server.
