Boris, your prejudices are showing, and they're pink, with flowery polka dots. The world is vast, wide, and there are many crazy places where the future is not bryght indeed. ;p<br><br>There were a few solutions for this using htaccess. Take a turn on the forums for clean urls and multi site, they're bound to pop up (I specifically remember one for dealing with directories). Also there as a link in the handbook?
<br><br>Perhaps we can turn this sage advice into:<br>Caution: Symlinks may mess up clean urls<br>?<br><br>Or perhaps I am reading this wrong, and actually, if you have a multi site in a sub directory, Boris is suggesting that actually, Step 3 (the pointing of domains) is not needed at all?
