Wordpress admin through sub domain

I'm using Wordpress for multiple sites at the same time through the Wordpress network feature.

I would like to move the front end of one of the sites out of the network but I still need to access Wordpress to manage the site. Let's take an example to make things easier to understand.

Initial situation:

mydomain.com points to www/myCMS/ I can access the web site by using mydomain.com and the admin through mydomain.com/wp-admin

Desired situation

I have changed mydomain.com and make it point to www/MyNewFrontEnd where there is no wordpress installation. This works fine and I'm happy with the result but I still need to access my wp-admin interface to manage this site.

I created a sub domain test.mydomain.com which points to www/myCMS, I have added the sub domain in the network configuration to allow test.mydomain.com + www.mydomain.com to access the same site. So when I go to test.mydomain.com/wp-admin I see the login / pwd page but whenever I try to log in, wordpress redirects me to www.mydomain.com/wp-admin which doesn't exist anymore.

Is there a way to make sure that the wordpress admin stays on test.mydomain.com ? How could I solve this?

Thanks

If you still can access to it through the old url, them change it at settings > general. if not them you can either change it on the database by modifying HOME and SITEURL at wp_options, or change it at your wp-config.php file, it should be something like define('WP_HOME', .... ) and define('WP_SITEURL', ....).
