I have several drupal site on one code base and I decided that I wanted to change my primary domain to a drupal site. I thought that in cpanel I would be able to point my primary domain into the drupal directory but by default the primary site only points the public_html directory.

I know that you can use htaccess to redirect the domain but does anybody have a different solution? My host said that they do not support the use of htaccess for this purpose and don't suggest this. Does anybody know why they wouldnt support the htaccess for doing this?
