><P
>      It may be advantageous to run multiple separate PDNS installations on a single host, for example to make sure
      that different customers cannot affect each others zones. PDNS fully supports running multiple instances on one host.
    </P
><P
>      To generate additional PDNS instances, copy the init.d script <TT
CLASS="FILENAME"
>pdns</TT
> to <TT
CLASS="FILENAME"
>pdns-name</TT
>, 
      where <TT
CLASS="FILENAME"
>name</TT
> is the name of your virtual configuration. Must not contain a - as this will confuse the 
      script.
    </P
><P
>      When you launch PDNS via this renamed script, it will seek configuration instructions not in <TT
CLASS="FILENAME"
>pdns.conf</TT
>
      but in <TT
CLASS="FILENAME"
>pdns-name.conf</TT
>, allowing for separate specification of parameters.
    </P
><P
>      Be aware however that the init.d <B
CLASS="COMMAND"
>force-stop</B
> will kill all PDNS instances!
