Using a subdomain with WWW prefix

I am having an issue with a client, because they use the website without WWW for an intranet, so they site only works with www inside the company network. I have fixed that but I'm having problems with for a subdomain to work, I cannot put the www in the subomdomain. Don't really know what I might be missing something.



First thing I have done was a redirect in htacess



#Redirect non-www to WWW
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www.
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.%{HTTP_HOST}/$1 [R=301,L]


Option nº2 in DNS Settings, added:



www.subdomain.example.com   CNAME   example.com


Option nº3 in DNS Settings



Added an A record for www.subdomain.example.com with a value of 176.61.147.134



Nothing seems to work, what might be the issue around this? Do I need to wait an hours for the DNS to propagate also? I am using Plesk, not cPanel.
