Of course this is possible.

A TCP connection is uniquely identified by the 5-tuple {localIP, localPort, 
remoteIP, remotePort, protocol}. The remoteIP and remotePort may be * in case 
of a passive open, i.e. a socket in LISTEN status, as is the case of a http 
server.

AS a matter of fact, you may not even need separate Apache instances. One 
instance can listen for connections on multiple addresses and ports, i.e. have 
multiple Listen directives.

Subject: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Multiple instances bound to separate IPs?

Is it possible to run two separate instances of Apache, both on port
80, but each bound to a different IP?  So, for instance one, I'd have
this in the httpd.conf:

Listen 192.168.1.1:80

And in the other, I'd have have:

Listen 192.168.1.2:80

If I started each with a specification of configuration file, would it
work, or would I get an error about a service already bound to port
80?  I'd start them like so

/usr/local/apache2/bin/httpd -f /usr/local/apache2/conf/httpd.conf -k start
/usr/local/apache2_php5/bin/httpd -f
/usr/local/apache2_php5/conf/httpd.conf -k start

Thanks in advance,

Sean
