 * Hi,
 * I installed multisite capabilites in WordPress 3.0.1. It got install successfully.
   I can see the SuperAdmin link coming at the top of my admin menu. I was able 
   to create multisites.
 * The issue is the permalink has stopped working. I am not able to understand why
   did it stop working. Whenever I try to visit the about us page or localhost/site1
   or localhost/site2 homepage it gives me
 * “OBJECT NOT FOUND. Error 404”
 * I have enable the module_write in httpd.conf file.Actually it was enabled by 
   default.
 * I copied the default generated code to be pasted to wp-config.php.
 * Also the default code to be pasted to .htaccess was also done.
 * I have one query regarding .htaccess file. Which .htaccess file we are referring
   to /xampp/phpmyadmin/libraries/.htaccess or htdocs/xampp/sqlite/.htaccess. I 
   am using XAMPP setup as my server.
 * When I checked my database the wp_site table is also not getting updated when
   I created a new site.
 * What could be the probable mistake on my part.
 * If required I would paste the code I have entered in both files

 * Neither of these. The .htaccess you want should be in the root of your WordPress
   install, which looks like the root directory of your server, as you haven’t installed
   it in a subdirectory.
 * See [http://codex.wordpress.org/Create_A_Network](http://codex.wordpress.org/Create_A_Network)
 * > 3. Add the generated mod_rewrite rules to your .htaccess file, replacing other
   > WordPress rules.
