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 ?
