multi user config files syntax

We are going to use drupal for a multi-user free access blog.
we have to create config files for each blog and wanted to know
a. what are the config files
b. what variables can be tampered with and what should not or have to remain fixed

this is to create a simple blog creationg script to be executed from shell when a new request for blog arrives, keeping some of the configuratoin fixed (like the layout of the admin page or something).

thanks.

Integrating Log-In/Logged-In into PHPTemplate.

I have removed the login module and am currently directing my users to http://www.website.com/user to login. I would like to put a conditional statement in my template (I am using PHPTemplate) that will display one of two things depending on whether or not the user is logged in or not. I know how to make the conditional statement, I just need to find the variable that tells me if I'm logged in or not.

Any help would be appreciated. I did search, but found nothing.

How to get back a dead site?

For some reason, my site died on me (http://drupal.org/node/44818).

Fortunately, I had db backups for every six hours. Would I be doing the right thing by deleting the db tables of the dead site and running the backup sql file? Is there anything else I need to be careful about?

Fun with flexinode! (linking 2 node types together for tabular display)

Friends,

I have been hacking at the flexinode module for a day and a half, and cannot seem to find a solution for what I need. I blame my sql ignorance. Anyway, I'm hoping that at least one of you has a suggestion how to overcome the limitation of only being able to list one flexinode-type at a time through the tabular (/flexinode/table/x) display. I need to link two flexinode-types together (I'm using relativity to link) and display their (combined) fields into the flexinode table display. The solution is most likely going to be pretty hard-coded, but should be something that can help out others in some of their future projects. Using 4.6.5.

The flexinode types and desired display
Gage: Title (not really using right now), Manufacturer (this is a taxonomy term), Series, Description
Cable: Title, Image1, Image2, Image3

Tablular display: Manufacturer | Series | Description | Cable.title | Image1 | Image2 | Image3

Where I've got
I've felt pretty close to getting it right, but now I'm tired and I'm not sure anymore. In theory, it seems like if we could run the core flexinode queries for each node-type (Gage and cable - 5 and 6, respectively), and then join them (can you join query result sets?) based on the corresponding link that relativity creates, we'd have it. I've tried to figure out a way to set a loop in the module to do that, but I just get confused. I can get much closer in phpMyAdmin, but then it's not quite the same to make it happen in the php.
