Is there any way to host a forum as my sub domain.
Im having my own domain. I want to use a subdomain for my new mybb hosting.

How to do that?
Pls help me regarding this.
Yes you can do this, and you'll just need to add a sub-domain via your hosting panel and then upload the files into that folder. Then you install it and you're done basically.
I need to change the question.
Im having a website www.csetube.in

I can't put materials on it as its like blogger. So im having another free webhost to upload materials.
I want to link another website link such as csetube.freeoda.com as subdomain to csetube.in
Ping that server in command prompt (ping server.name), note the IP, then go to your domain's control panel and add an A record for the subdomain you want that points to that IP.

If we change A records, will it not affect previously hosted domain pointing to another server?

A subdomain in itself is just an A record. It won't affect the main domain.

sorry i missed your second post, and stingreay answer is correct
login to your domain panel add an a record like site.mydomain.com and point the IP to the other server eg: 120.22.11.11 simple.
