I I'm supposed to be using the /BP/.htaccess file, should I change how things point from the top or relative to the .htaccess location? Sploggers taking over our blogs. So far none of the variations on this work - I'm assuming I can test this by navigating directly to mydomain.com/BP/wp-signup.com what if my installation is in a sub-directory, like http://www.domain.com/BP/ ?

would I do this:

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} .BP/wp-signup\.php*

for that line – same for the others?
