[Xitami] Running two copies of xitami

[Russel Olinger]

Linda:

You don't have to run a seperate copy of Xitami.  If you aren't aware you 
can have many virtual domains exist on a single IP address.  Each virtual 
domain would have its own config file.  However, if you are aware of this 
and still want a second copy of xitami running then you would need a second 
install of xitami (in a second folder) and you would need to do a minimum of 
two things:

1.  change the service name of the second copy - by default ximati uses its 
names as the windows process service identifier. In the defaults.cfg of the 
second install under the [Win32] section you would need to change 
"Service-name" to something other than "Xitami" (this is assuming you left 
the first install copy as the default service name.).  Ideally you would 
want to change the "Service-text" too, but that is just the service 
description so its not truly needed.

2.  for the port, in the defaults.cfg file uner [Server] you would need to 
change the "portbase" to the appropriate number.  If you don't see it there 
then you can add it:
    portbase= 0        # e.g. 5000 for port 5080

by the example after the #, the default port (aka: base port) is port 80 
thats one reaons why you might not see it under the [Server] section, but if 
it is or you have already added it then note that portbase=0 IS the HTTP 
port 80.  So if you wanted to change your secondary Xitami install to port 
81, then set portbase=1, to set it to 8080, portbase=8000.  Basically, what 
ever number you want to use, subtract 80 from that number and that will be 
your portbase.

I probably did overkill on the explanation but its late my time right now 
and I have sort of gone into zombie mode.  :-)
