i finally setup wpmu with subdomain support at http://mytoa.net
a working subdomain: http://halkibsi.mytoa.net or http://haithamalkibsi.mytoa.net
you notice that both subdomains work, but if you go to the main domina http://www.mytoa.net you will see that it gives me an empty directory list...???? thats weird because i have file in the root directory of the website. When this happened, i am unable to further administer the wpmu install.
any idea why this happening?
grrrrr now i get a cPanel successful installation page
*sigh*
i have a feeling it has to do with the wildcard entry i made in httpd.conf file:
<VirtualHost 72.52.204.157:80>
ServerName http://www.mytoa.net
ServerAlias *.mytoa.net
ServerAdmin halkibsi@gmail.com
DocumentRoot /home/username/public_html
<IfModule mod_suphp.c>
suPHP_UserGroup username username
</IfModule>
<IfModule !mod_disable_suexec.c>
User username
Group username
</IfModule>
BytesLog /usr/local/apache/domlogs/mytoa.net-bytes_log
CustomLog /usr/local/apache/domlogs/mytoa.net combined
ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ /home/username/public_html/cgi-bin/
</VirtualHost>
could that be it??
Did you also add the wildcard to bind?
Did you restart both bind and apache after making edits?
Where within your file system did you install the mu files?
Per the artcile linked to in the readme file, the Serveralias should come first:

Not sure if that's important or not though.
problem fixed...
thanks for your help tdjcbe, but the problem was not with what matt suggested, but it was the line which I placed the virtualhost record inside of httpd.conf file :)
thanks again!!
Which line was the issue? (Something up above?)
Folks seem to come back months later and find these threads wondering what the solution was.
