    Hi all,

    I'm looking for a multi site CMS for a catchall domain. My requirements are:

    - LAMP, Linux/Apache/MySQL/PHP
    - Should be able to handle multiple domains, i.e the same CMS instance should handle the content for site-a.tld, site-b.tld and so on

    Does something like this exist? Anything close to it that may be modded to fit my needs?

    Thanks for any tips.

    Are all sites content wise different or just the dummy redirects?

    All are different sites with different content. They could be made similar though, as in using the same template for example.

    I am looking for something like http://n2cms.com/ which handles multiple sites in one installation, the reason I can't use that is because it is .NET only, I need that but in PHP.

    Drupal can handle multisite setup. Each site has its own database or all sites can share the same database with table prefixes - that's up to you. In any case each site has its own configuration and content with only one set of core files on your server.
    All sites can share the same contributed modules and themes and it's also possible to restrict certain themes and modules to specific sites.

    There are commercial php application that can build multiple site within one backend. The hosting company have such software. But I don't know the name of the application, maybe it is called "intelligence site building".
