Multiple domains - 1 WP installation

    What is the best way to run multiple wordpress sites of one installation? I want to simply point multiple domains to the same directory and then be able to create pages for each domain (if I create a page on domain A I do not want it to show up on domain B). Set different themes for different sites etc. They sites should be completely separate.

    Any idea how to do it?

    Thanks.

    Did you tried wordpress MU?
    Edit: Wordpress Mu is no longer supported by wordpress but you can use this codex.wordpress.org/Create_A_Network

    For anyone else who was actually looking for the answer:

    It's called "Creating a Network":
    http://codex.wordpress.org/Create_A_Network

    You can set your network sites up on folders or subdomains, and you can either code it, or use additional plug ins that will allow you to use private domains on each site, and even spread your installation across multiple databases.
