Try putting some sort of logic into wp-config.php that chooses which db
to connect to:
if ($_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'] == "site1.mydomain.com") {
define(DB_NAME, "site1_db");
} elseif ($_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'] == "site2.mydomain.com") {
define(DB_NAME, "site2_db");
}
Kludgy, but effective. Should work for admin as well as frontend.
You'll also need access to your server setup, so you can define the same
docroot for all subdomains.
