WordPress MU

Hey,

I'm setting up WordpressMU for someone who wants people to be able to create their own blogs which will be hosted on his server. But he also would like each blog to have its own domain. Is this possible to achieve using redirects? This might just be something that can simply be done in cpanel, or the .htaccess file, but I really don't have a lot of technical knowledge about what goes on behind-the-scenes, so I don't know if there is a reason why this wouldn't be possible with WordpressMU. Before telling him that yes what he wants is possible, I just want to doublecheck.

Just to make sure I'm clear, here's an example. Can I redirect hissite.com/WordpressMU/blog to blogsite.com ?

I hope the question makes sense, any help will be appreciated.

Thanks,
Jenn

There are plugins to handle this sort of thing, but I'm not sure of the exact capabilities of them.

You need the Domain Mapping plugin.
