I’m having the same issue at commercialrealtors.net. I did recently get a message from my host (A2) that they were making some server upgrades.

Anyone else in this thread host with A2?

I figured it out using Cpanel and WHM. Here are the steps for anyone that wants to try it.

1) Create a subdomain in Cpanel for whichever subdomain is being used by WPMU, for example if your new site in WPMU is 1.aaa.com, create that exact subdomain in cpanel.

2) Redirect/Point (while using the subdomain creation function) that newly created subdomain to the whichever alternate subdomain you desire, for this example, 1.bbb.com.

3) Park 1.bbb.com (do not create the subdomain in the subdomain function of cpanel), park only.

4) Create a CNAME record for 1.aaa.com and also point it to 1.bbb.com. (If 1.aaa.com has an “A” record, delete it.)

That’s it!

Cheers!

Thanks for the reply, Ron. The reason I didn’t I didn’t install at bbb.com was because I wanted bbb.com (just bbb.com, no bbb.com subdomains) to be a clone/duplicate of aaa.com. I found a nice plugin from the WPMUdev.org guys that allows very easy duplication.

But my problem is all of the bbb.com subdomains are going to be a completely different type of site than is the tld. Hence, my issue.

Thanks again.
