Hello

What i need is

1. one apache i want to listen on 80 with its binaries in /etc/apche

2. second apahe i want to listen on 8080 wiht its binaries in other path.

That way the Apache binaries can be used by only one instance any point of time. And i dont want to use Zoning methodology anyway.

Is the above possible ? completely isolating the apache from one another ?

Thanks
