New install, I copied sites/default to sites/localhost as usual . However as there was no settings.php , Drupal does not recogn that directory , so i copy default.settings.php to settings.php. Opsie, the default placeholders result in an error message and I do not get the form to change... I added back some default checks.

I'm not sure I understand what you're saying, chx. You're being rather cryptic. :)

This is unecessary -- all you need to do is create a directory, and at install-time a settings.php file will be created for you. The benefit of that approach is that you don't have to re-download a fresh copy of Drupal to get a 'clean' settings.php if you've already installed into /default.

I've just installed something like a dozen multisites with this technique...
