New 3.0 MultiSite install URL issue
I've just installed wordpress 3.0, set up the multi site according to all the instructions and have it working with subdomains however when I create a new blog its putting the site name on the back of the url
The blog is http://youheardthatnetworks.com
When I created a new site the url it creates is http://indie.youheardthatnetworks.comyouheardthatnetworks_com/
Obviously this doesn't work, when I manually remove the xtra url on the end (which is the db username by the way) it shows the blog but no theme or css comes up.
What have i done wrong? The server is through DreamHost Private Server, they set up the wildcard DNS and made sure everything in the DNS is set correctly.

Very weird. Can you paste your .htaccess and wp-config file contents with db password blanked out? Also does it do the same when creating a blog from the front and back? It may be easiest as it's a new install to just redo it.
Sure here is the htaccess
<br />
RewriteEngine On<br />
RewriteBase /<br />
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]</p>
<p># uploaded files<br />
RewriteRule ^([_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/)?files/(.+) wp-includes/ms-files.php?file=$2 [L]</p>
<p># add a trailing slash to /wp-admin<br />
RewriteRule ^([_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/)?wp-admin$ $1wp-admin/ [R=301,L]</p>
<p>RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -f [OR]<br />
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -d<br />
RewriteRule ^ - [L]<br />
RewriteRule ^([_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/)?(wp-(content|admin|includes).*) $2 [L]<br />
RewriteRule ^([_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/)?(.*\.php)$ $2 [L]<br />
RewriteRule . index.php [L]<br />and the config

I reinstalled and corrected. Not really sure what happened but its fixed now.
For future reference (to those doing a search) Line 26 of the above wp-config.php is wrong:
define( 'PATH_CURRENT_SITE', 'www.youheardthatnetworks.com' );
should be
define( 'PATH_CURRENT_SITE', '/' );
This is the second time I;ve seen br tags in someone's copied and pasted htaccess file. Are those tags really in there or is the code display plugin here doing something to muck things up?
