I have Wordpress currently setup with subdomain multisite. I have  
multiple domains that are aliases for a primary domain. With the rules  
I have in place, going to one of the secondary domains results in a hard  
redirect to my primary. Example:

Enter [http://secondarydomain.com](http://secondarydomain.com) in the browser.  
Get redirected to [http://primarydomain.com](http://primarydomain.com).

## Is this the only way I can have it work? My preference would be to have the server name remain the “secondary” name as entered - so it appears to be multiple discreet sites.
