    I have wordpress multi-site enabled and have roughly 50 sites up and running. I have been asked to make what seems to be a small change but I am unsure if its even possible.

    We have a large website (not wordpress) that serves up the main site with all its content. We then have a sub-folder containing wordpress with employee blogs.

    These blogs are all based on their first initial last name. This all works fine, but I have been asked to clean up the "address".

    What we have now is http://www.sitename.com/wpmu/name
    What we want is http://www.sitename.com/name

    I am not even sure if this is possible but there may be a larger problem
    The root for our website is http://www.sitename.com
    When this is typed in it redirects to http://www.sitename.com/web/index.php
    so web and wpmu are in separate folders in the root directory.

    Is it possible for the wordpress install to remove the wpmu in the address bar?

    Probably, but not easily and it's not supported. I've heard of other people using some impressive httpd.conf chicanery to make it work.
