Hi Dave, thanks for the reply

I am using Drupal in the root and this is the root index.php. I tried moving
it into the lyceum dir but returned 500 error. There will be an obvious
class in the rewite rules to those who know what they are looking at but it
is well beyond my level of knowledge. I have included my .htaccess file
below.

## Apache/PHP/Drupal settings:
#

# Protect files and directories from prying eyes.
<FilesMatch

.pl|Entries.*|Repository|Root)$">
  Order deny,allow
  Deny from all
</FilesMatch>

Identified as being a problem with the themes Ajax commenting. I'll fix

If you're using the exact same .htaccess, then you need the index.php 
file inside the lyceum directory. The root level index.php will not be 
processes. As to why it's forwarding to w3, I don't know. What do you 
have inside index.php? Do you have a url we can look at?
