You must also register the wildcard domain *.dev.domain.com (The asterisk in as the sub-domain will usually allow you to create any sub domain you want and it will work) and point it to your main site. You can normally do this through you host’s Control Panel. I didn’t do this when I started with WPMU and this is what I missed.
