Hello Tony -
Many Radiator users do exactly what you describe.
You can have different configuration files, but it is usually easier if you have a single configuration file and use parameters and GlobalVar's passed in on the command line to set up the two instances.

Hello,
?
??????????? I am playing with the idea of running 2 instances of radiator on the same server, one for authentication, one for accounting.?? This should increase performance as the server will be able to accept both an accounting request and an auth request at the same time.? My idea is to have 3 configuration files, called main.cfg, auth.cfg, acct.cfg. main.cgi will have my current config with handlers etc.? Then auth.cfg would look something like this:
AcctPort
Include %D/main.cfg
?
Same for acct.cfg, but with AuthPort
?
Will this work?? Any reason not to run two instances of radiator?? We use sql for our session database, so that shouldn’t cause a problem.

What about those you know, are they on the GO?

NB: have you included a copy of your configuration file (no secrets),
together with a trace 4 debug showing what is happening?
