thanks for the replies everyone. i'm new to server admin issues in general, which adds to my confusion.
how exactly does drupal know to display one theme for one domain and a different them for a different one if they are both running off the same database? there doesn't seem to be anything in settings.php which affects that.
i appreciate the help with understanding all this.

STILL WAITING FOR AN ASSISTANCE PLEASE. Spent hours and hours messing around. Online doc's no help on this problem either.
I've set up my sub category pages using views and applied the correct configuration so that each page only displays the products relevant to its category.
I have also assigned each page a URL.
But I can't work out how to create a categories page listing and linking to the above sub category pages.
I tried several different options and non work.
This is the scheme I want-
- Categories --> 2. Product listings within a category (teaser style)
--> 3. Product information page.
I have 2 and 3 all connected and working fine but I can't find the correct combination of options to create 1, the listing of categories (linked to 2).
The closest I get is a listing of categories, but for some bizarre reason it shows each category several times (It seems to show each category one time per product within that category). I'm thinking this may be a bug?
Assistance please :-)

Normally people on a mailing list have some degree of passion for their project. It appears that this is absent from the Drupal community. I participate in other OS mailing lists where people help each other and I help people when they have a problem I can assist with. But for a project that claims to have so many adherents like this I would have thought somebody could provide some assistance. Apparently not.

At the end of settings.php, you can override some config variables. E.g:
$conf = array( 'site_name' => 'My second site name', 'site_slogan' => 'My second site slogan', 'site_mission' => 'My second site mission (if you accept it)', 'theme_default' => 'my_other_theme', 'site_frontpage' => 'my_second_frontpage', );
You get the idea ...

ah ok, and then apparently it loads a different settings.php file based on what the referring domain request was. i think i am starting to understand this.
thanks will
