(RADIATOR) Dual Radiator Setup

[Hugh Irvine]

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.

regards

Hugh

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