I have a single site setup on my local WAMP and ready to migrate to a hosting server using LAMP, my problem is I would like to change the configuration to multisite, I've installed D6 on my hosting server and did the following changes:
- created 2 subfolders under /sites/ (/sites/domain1 and /sites/domain2 and removed the default folder as suggested)
- uploaded my single site .css and graphics file into /site/domain1 (domain2 not ready yet)

So here are my questions:
- is there any tool to migrate the nodes I've created on my local Drupal?
- which configuration files I have to change due to the directory change?
- what's the procedure to backup my my local db then restore it on the host (the host is using cPanel and I'm not an expert in SQL, sorry, and to make things worse, I've also changed the db name :-(
- I'm running a single Drupal core for this multisite each with its own db, how do I setup a 2nd domain? running Drupal setup again or just changing some configuration files.

If you don't mind, could you please give me step by step instructions, sorry for your trouble, I'm new to Drupal and still in the learning curve.

Thanks for any comment/suggestions
Michael
