    Hello,
    I have a blog on address http://w.domain.com/my_blog
    What should I change, If I would like to use it on a new domain http://www.my_blog.com?

    Is it enough to change all paths in blog properties via admin?
    Can MU Wordpress handle correctly blogs on multiple different domains?

    I think better change path`s settings via sql manager.. Because your admin CP might not work properly

    I second that. Manually adjust everything through sql interface (no guarantees though).

    OK, so it's been more than a year since this thread was started, but after many failed attempts I have just accomplished this - changing the domain a WPMU was installed on, so I thought I'd share the joy :-)

    For a start you will need to work directly in the SQL tables - I used phpMyAdmin.

    There are instances of the domain name in tables all over the place. Just use the search tool in phpMyAdmin to find them and change them... ALL!

    For now, at least, I am a happy nerd!
