[3ddesktop-dev] Re: Don't get your hopes up buddy :-(

Hello,

        If that is the only problem what about changing the binary name ? For
example I run two instances of bind on a firewall box. So I have taken
the original binary "named" and:

cp named named-int
cp named named-ext

Now I start both instances with:

named-int -c /var/named-int/named-int.config
named-ext -c /var/named-ext/named-ext.config

Could this be done with 3ddesktop ?

Michael.
