Indeed, and that is what I do. I have a default install of apache on my (solaris) system, which I compiled from source, and afterwards didn't touch. I have it installed in /opt/apache/httpd-<version>. That way I can even have different versions of apache on the same machine. Then I have different instances of webservers in /opt/webserver/<servername>. Each of these directories has a conf directory, a log directory and a htdocs directory. I also make a link here to /opt/apache/httpd-<version>/modules and /opt/apache/httpd-<version>/bin, so that I can use this dir as a serverroot. I have a script that uses a servername as argument and that starts a httpd instance with the correct binary, serverroot and config. This allows me to start and stop each instance seperately. Myapache script in /etc/init.d just iterates over the directories in /opt/webservers and starts (or stops) them. Krist -- krist.vanbesien@xxxxxxxxx krist@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Bremgarten b.
