Thanks Jeff, It great to have these instructions listed step by step.
However, I think Ora was asking how to set up multiple domains as FarCry sites, not how to set up a single domain with multiple FarCry sites. I haven't set up multiple domains yet, but it is my understanding that this is handled by FarCry as is. (Gary's response to this tread seems to confim this.) Could someone please correct me if I'm wrong.
