[Xitami] Multi server issue

Paul,
 
Thanks.  This is the kind of info I was looking for.  Port 80 is dependent per IP as its a tcp issue.  I checked 'netstat -na' and see only see Port 80 bound to the first server.  There is no other port 80 on any of the other IPs on the NIC.  Currently the second IP has port 5080 bound to it which is what I had to set that second server to just to come up.  But changing that second server back to port 80 prevents the service from starting.
 
The NIC currently has 3 IPs, each IP serves different sevcies (dns, smtp, pop, http, etc).  I am using Windows Advanced Server 2003 and was pretty certain that I previously did this type of configuration but couldn't recall if I ran both IPs with port 80 or one on port 80 and the other on another port.
 
Can anyone else test this for me to see what results you get?  Simply add another IP to your nic, stop your xitami service and copy the xitami folder to a new folder (otherwise the defaults.cfg file will get corrupted in the copy), change the defaults.cfg server IP to the new IP of the nic and change the Xitami Service Name, and then start the both sevices from both xitami folders.
 
Can you connect port 80 on both IPs?  Will the second sevice even start up?
 
In the meantime I am checking to see if there are conflicting config files in either of the folders that I am currently using.
 
Thanks all.Russel P.
