[support] multiple domains at same site

[Alexander Arul]

Hi Kamal,

Thanks for the detailed reply. Like you said it's all just typical
configuration, the only benefit is that admin can setup and manage 10
websites from one place. So setting up multi site is all about just setting
up the sites/*<mydomain>/*settings.php .. pretty straight forward then.

What about isolating each web site from each other. What is the best way to
ensure this?

Thanks :)

Alex
