Configure htaccess to fix Wordpress Multisite Login and Register on Subsites

We have managed to get Wordpress Multisite running on Bitnami and it is running in subdirectory mode instead of in subdomain mode on a virtual server on our college campus.

We now have two other problems. First we're wanting to add new users to the different blogs we have running under Multisite. Currently users can be added from the "main" Wordpress blog that is the default one set up when Multisite was installed. However, users cannot add themselves to individual blogs created after the initial install. How do we fix this?

The second problem may be related to the first. When we create new blogs under Multisite, everything works EXCEPT for the link for users to log in to the system to post. When the link is clicked, we get the following comment in the web browser: "Too many redirects occurred trying to open 'http://teach.wpcc.edu/david/wp-login.php". This might occur if you open a page that is redirected to open another page which then is redirected to open the original page." We're guessing this has something to do with the htaccess file as we've been reading in various Wordpress configuration questions in forums. The problem is that the htaccess.conf file in Bitnami is in a different location from the .htaccess file referred to in these postings (our htaccess.conf is in /opt/bitnami/apps/wordpress/htdocs/ ). Are we looking in the right place or where do we need to go to fix the login link for these blogs?

Thank you in advance for your help.
