Sounds like $phpbb_root_path is a variable from a pre-built forum
configuration.
Perhaps the best way to handle this is something along the lines of
adding some code to redirect to the subdomain (if someone tries to
go to
http://www.example.com/myforum/) then set that variable to
the subdomain name.
<?php
$sValidServerName = "subdomain.example.com";
$sServerName = $_SERVER['SERVER_NAME'];
if ($sServerName !== $sValidServerName) {
header("Location: http://subdomain.example.com/");
exit;
}
$phpbb_root_path = "http://subdomain.example.com/";
?>

That's the best interpretation pondered here.
