I followed this tutorial as well, and found that the rewrite rules were 
fairly critical to everything working as expected (the lyceum/WP link 
structure, especially with trailing slashes, just doesn't work out 
without some help). I'm a newbie with mod_rewrite, myself, but was able 
to cobble something together. YMMV.

Note that the rules as displayed on the web page lost a few carriage 
returns. I *think* the correct interpretation of those lines is:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www.(.*)
RewriteRule ^(.*)        http://%1/$1 [R,L]

## Inserted some local rules here

RewriteRule ^(.*) /lyceum/$1 [L,QSA]

At the time, I had tried commenting on the Nepherim blog documenting my 
experiences, but either the comments were lost, or caught in moderation 
limbo. My memory of exactly what had to be done is hazy now, unfortunately.

Hi all. I'm new here, too.
