I'm looking to set up a handful of sites in a network but have a question I can't seem to find answered online.

Let's say I have a top level site at the root directory, eg:
http://localhost

Is there a way to have my sub-sites appear in a custom directory, eg:
http://localhost/custom/site01
http://localhost/custom/site02
http://localhost/custom/site03

Instead of
http://localhost/site01

I tried changing the site URLs but it always results in a page not found so I'm guessing it has to be done another way.

Thanks!

This question is unlikely to help any future visitors; it is only relevant to a small geographic area, a specific moment in time, or an extraordinarily narrow situation that is not generally applicable to the worldwide audience of the internet. For help making this question more broadly applicable, see the FAQ.

You could make another wordpress site under that subdirectory and then install mu, that would solve it

Although that would work you are then left with 2 installations to maintain and secure. Far from ideal in my opinion. – Brady♦ Nov 11 '11 at 17:45
no one said it would be easy :) – Jeremy Love Nov 11 '11 at 17:45
It would be an improvement over my current multi-installs but yea, I was hoping for just one eventually. :) – hhins Nov 11 '11 at 18:47
