[wp-edu] Superadmins redirect to main page admin panel when misspelling pages

[Jonathan Cox]

I put "define('NOBLOGREDIRECT', 'http://example.com');" into the config file for my barebones installation. http://localhost/noblog took me to example.com, but http://localhost/noblog/wp-admin/ still took me to the dashboard of the main site. 

Gerlando, my guess is that your 404 is correct as the RewriteRule Bill pointed to won't have the same effect for subdomain installations as it will for subdirectory installation. I haven't really poked around the source much, but, if that's the case, I don't understand why it wouldn't checks to see if the requested blog exists in either case.
