Hey,

Before I delve into into research and work, I thought it would be appropriate to ask here if anyone has tried www.domaindirect.com and drupal.
I havent given it a shot or anything and im hoping i wouldnt run into too much trouble, but I thought it wouldnt hurt to ask!

thanks for any feedback :)

I'm thinking to change my webhost provider and I'm testing Dreamhost, it look like very nice, many features and service but I need to understand if it support my main need

I have many sites running a Drupal multisite installation so that I need to let my customers access (via ftp) to sites/domain-nameA.com, sites/domain-nameB.net, sites/domain-nameC.org, etc.. so that they're able to manage files/, themes/ and modules/ directories, is this possible with Dreamhost.com? If yes, how? I was looking for this but I hasn't able to find it..

Drupal requires your Netfirms hosting account to support PHP and MySQL. Currently all premium hosting plans on Netfirms support both PHP and MySQL.

A. DOWNLOAD AND INSTALL DRUPAL

1. To install Drupal download the latest version from www.drupal.org.
2. Once you have downloaded and extracted the Drupal files, upload them to
your web site using your FTP program.

B. CREATE A MYSQL DATABASE

Before proceeding with the installation, you will need to create a MySQL database:

1. Log into the Members section at Members Control Panel at http://www.netfirms.com/members
2. Click Site Tools
3. Click Database
4. Click Add
5. Enter a Database Description

The following will be created by the system for your database (please write this information down as you will require it at step D18):

Database Name
Database address or hostname will be MYSQLHOST
User Name
Password

C. IMPORT DRUPAL TABLE STRUCTURE

Once your MySQL database is created, import the Drupal table structure into it:

6. From the Netfirms Control Panel, clic Site Tools
7. Click Database
8. Click Admin
9. Click the phpMyAdmin button
10. In phpMyAdmin, click on the database name in the left column.
11. Click the SQL tab
12. Click the Browse button
13. You will then need to navigate to the appropriate directory to find the data: inside your drupal folder is a folder called database. Open that folder, and select the file: database.4.1.mysql

For those of you deploying Drupal in a multisite configuration - what host do you use? I'm looking for a good host that allows symlinks or access to httpd.conf, or will set it up for me, for setting up of virtual hosts so I can point my multisite domains to the document root of my primary Drupal install. Currently I'm doing this by parking domains on top of each other - but the drawback with this approach is that my multisite accounts don't have a separate admin (cpanel) interface.
