I've tried the ssh and htaccess methods here... http://drupal.org/node/20663 but couldn't get anything to work.
i have all my domains pointing to /drupal. you don't see that drupal folder, my domains treat it like it's the base/home/root thingy through my hosts control panel settings. Its the only way I could get mod_rewrite to work, put drupal in a folder. *shrug*.
Anyways to my problem. Each of my sites have their own db prefix and the corresponding tables created. different theme, etc. nothing to do with each other! just sharing the same drupal install.
sites/default - works!
sites/different.org - works!
sites/sub.blah.us - works!
sites/sub.blah.us.folder - doesn't work :(
that 4th entry needs to be a new drupal site... but with the url http://sub.blah.us/folder
tried adding stuff to .htaccess. Spend about 6 hours (seriously) doing every combination of ln -s i could think of, with slash, without, with creating the folder first, without, full path, part path, dots, etc. tried using the extended path, the homepages/2digit/myusernumber/htdocs/ etc... I never did understand that path stuff. With my host 1and1, I don't even see the htdocs folder when I use ftp, i'm already in it when i login and can't move up in the path. I only know its there by logging into ssh, then already being in htdocs (therefore not seeing it), then doing a cd .. and being suprised it let me. blah.
