    Yes, you have to be the owner of all of them.

    What I meant was that hosting of all the sites needs to be at the same place.

    You can’t have one domain on EngineHosting, one on MediaTemple and one on Dreamhosting.

    Many of my sites are on a stand alone box using cPanel. cPanel allows me to create addon sites pretty easily.

    With EngineHosting, they’ll add it for you.

    MediaTemple’s GS works fairly well with adding domains.

    DreamHosting I have no, clue, haven’t used them in years. 😊


    Here’s an example.

    I have a site called myname.com. I have a site called granddaughter1.com, daughter1.com, and granddaughter2.com

    (The other sites are EECore now, since I don’t need them to do too much.)

    But in the folders on my site, granddaughter1, daughter1, and granddaughter2 are directories on the same level as my system directory.

    So when I create my path.php files for the other sites, I can use ../system which works for finding the system directory.

    On MediaTemple I do something similar.

    Make sense?

    I have a question about the multi-site management.

    If my non-profit company has 25 seperate subdomains that are managed by 25 seperate people and instead of limiting the permissions on the weblogs… if I decide to go forward with the multi-site manager.  Would I have to buy seperate licenses for the multi-site, if they are all sub-domains on the same server for the same company?

    If so… do I have to purchase all the multi-sites at once.  Or can I purchase them as I build the sites?

    Thanks.

    This is probably a question that should be asked by itself in the Pre-Sales forum opposed to this far down on an old thread.
