   I just attempted to set up the multisite feature of 3.0.1 and when I tried going to the home page I got the default hosting site welcome page instead of my home page. What did I do wrong?

   1) YOu didn't put WordPress in the main public_html folder or...
   2) There's an index.html file left in by your host.

   No, I did put it in the public_html folder and there is no index.html file there, just the wordpress index.php file.

   My wp_config.php file reads:

   define('WP_DEBUG', false);
   define('WP_ALLOW_MULTISITE', true);
   define( 'MULTISITE', true );
   define( 'SUBDOMAIN_INSTALL', false );
   $base = '/';
   define( 'DOMAIN_CURRENT_SITE', 'neighborsconnect.us' );
   define( 'PATH_CURRENT_SITE', '/' );
   define( 'SITE_ID_CURRENT_SITE', 1 );
   define( 'BLOG_ID_CURRENT_SITE', 1 );
   /* That's all, stop editing! Happy blogging. */

   The total contents of my .htaccess file reads:

   RewriteEngine On
   RewriteBase /
   RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]

   # uploaded files
   RewriteRule ^([_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/)?files/(.+) wp-includes/ms-files.php?file=$2 [L]

   # add a trailing slash to /wp-admin
   RewriteRule ^([_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/)?wp-admin$ $1wp-admin/ [R=301,L]

   RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -f [OR]
   RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -d
   RewriteRule ^ - [L]
   RewriteRule ^([_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/)?(wp-(content|admin|includes).*) $2 [L]
   RewriteRule ^([_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/)?(.*\.php)$ $2 [L]
   RewriteRule . index.php [L]

   When I was setting it up, the instructions said to delete the "www" from the site url. I assumed the same for the wordpress url and deleted the "www" there as well. would that have anything to do with it?

   uh, yes.

   especially if your host did not set up the web account to answer to both.

   How can I change it without reinstalling wordpress, or since i have no content in it yet. Should I delete wordpress and start over?

   HostMonster told me their sites default to the www, but they should answer to both.
