i know there was a post about how to do this without using wordpress MU but I can't seem to find that post or from google.

Can someone kindly point me to the instructions to setting up mutliple wordpress blogs under one domain?

Thank you!

You can setup multiple blogs in different subdirectories under your root directory using separate databases and everything. Are you wanting them to all be accessible from a subdomain or just like domain.c0m/blog2 domain.c0m/blog3 etc..?

There is a wordpress plugin that will turn your categories into subdomains too, if that would accomplish anything for you. Let me know and I will find it for you

yes something like that and can it share the same database? i don't want to setup all that junk again if not necessary

It can share the same database, just make sure and use different database prefixes on each one (the default is wp_ when you are installing)
