Define your instance specific nonsense as pereach instance. I.e. Pid files.... It is how we did it in the old days prior to VHosts ----------------- Sent from my NYPL BlackBerry Handheld. ----- Original Message ----- From: Sean Brown [seanmichaelbrown@xxxxxxxxx] Sent: 10/24/2005 09:19 PM To: users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [users@httpd] Multiple instances bound to separate IPs? Is it possible to run two separate instances of Apache, both on port 80, but each bound to a different IP? So, for instance one, I'd have this in the httpd.conf: Listen 192.168.1.1:80 And in the other, I'd have have: Listen 192.168.1.2:80 If I started each with a specification of configuration file, would it work, or would I get an error about a service already bound to port 80? I'd start them like so /usr/local/apache2/bin/httpd -f /usr/local/apache2/conf/httpd.conf -k start /usr/local/apache2_php5/bin/httpd -f /usr/local/apache2_php5/conf/httpd.conf -k start Thanks in advance, Sean --------------------------------------------------------------------- The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project.
