newbie: Creating sub-sites

  Asked By: Douglas Price         Date: Jul 13, 2003      Category: Sharepoint      Views: 1396

All:

I have created a top-level Sharepoint Portal website. Now I would like to
create several sub-sites. When I click on the Sites tab and choose Create
Site, I see that my URL will be http://216.xxx.xxx.xxx/sites/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">http://216.xxx.xxx.xxx/sites/[MySiteName]

I really don't want to have the "/sites/" directory, I would rather make the
URL http://216.xxx.xxx.xxx/[MySiteName], but I cannot figure out if I can
remove the "sites" directory. Is this possible?

As what I understand, you have to have a starting point. /Sites/ is one of the managed path that SP define as default. If you don't like the name "Sites" you can define your own name and direct all site creations to that
