Hello,
We are intending to use the MultiSites component in one of our projects. Before purchasing I have few basic questions:
1. How can I setup multiple sites on my development machine?
We will be developing the website on our local server. While configuring the component, the documentation says that you need to enter the domain names of the slave sites. I cannot enter the domain names of the slave sites on the development server. We intend to develop the web sites first and then host those. So when we host those sites, we will be configuring the multisite component and enter the domain names for the master as well as slaves. Is there any work around so that we dont have to enter the domain names on our development server? for eg. Master = localhost/master, Salve site 1 = localhost/slave1 etc.

2. User sharing
If we use separate databases for each of the sites (master as well as slaves), can we share the users? We need to display the entire member directory on master and probably on the slave sites. How can I do this?

Thanks

1) When working on a localhost, there is a procedure to simulate a domain.
See user manual chapter 9

2) Yes you can share the user accross DB when the MySQL user privileges give you the rights. So check the MySQL user privileges to ensure it access access on the different DBs.
