 * Hello:
 * I am the administrator for one site “A” that oversees a number of other small
   sites “B, C, D”. Each of the smaller sites “B, C, D” have their own individual
   administrators/editors. However, one of the smaller sites “C” was down for a 
   while and the logins for that smaller site has been lost due to new people taking
   over the position. Thus, I am unable to access and edit site “C” without creating
   a new user, but the only way I could do it is through the main site “A”. It appears
   that all I can do is add new users that can edit site “A, ” rather than stipulating
   that the new user will have control over site “C” only.
 * Is it possible to create an administrator for site “C” from my position on site“
   A”? If so, how should I go about doing it? It is pertinent that the administrator
   of site “C” only has access to site “C,” due to data collection and other possible
   security issues.
 * Thank you very much for any and all suggestions.
