I use Hostmonster, and they set up the server with one cpanel and additional domains as "Add-on Domains", each add-on domain has it's own subdirectory of public_html and I'm betting (haven't tried it yet), that I can use symbolic links to use the same drupal image for multiple domains that way.

You could try setting it up using symbolic links. Here's a post on GDO explaining how to do that, even using PHP if you don't have shell access on your server:

Again - this is going to depend upon what your hosting company allows/doesn't allow. There really isn't much that can be done on the Drupal side to get this working. You are dealing with Apache itself and how it handles finding the files for each site.

Thanks Jamie,
I tried that. My webhost does not allow that.
Moving to a vps is not feasible at the moment.
Are there drupal alternatives to achieving what I want. I want to have multiple subdomains using the same codebase/database. I tried multisites, but I had the same issues.
Thanks
