[support] Multiplicity

[Rajaram Shyamala]

For multisite on windows:
http://drupal.org/node/32715

Read 'settings.php', in the sites/default folder, to understand how drupal searches it's folder to locate the file storing a particular domain's settings.php.

Drupal by default reads the settings.php file in the default folder. You can configure the main portal settings in the default directory. The subdomains a.com and b.com can be configured by creating two new folders under the sites directory  called yourdomain.a.com and yourdomain.b.com. Each of these folders should have it's own settings.php. In the settings.php of each site you have to name the database to be used. 

If you want some settings to be shared between the sites you could go in for a shared database configuration.

Multi-Site, Single Codebase, Shared Database, Shared Sign-on 5.x
