Running multiple instances of coova-chilli

Sun, 05/31/2009 - 20:32 — freddock

Hi,
Is-it possible to run multiple instances of coova-chilli on a single machine?
I tried to, with 2 differents instances configured with :
- 2 differents config files
- 2 differents NIC
- 2 differents tun
- 2 differents PID files
- 2 differents Socket files
- 2 differents IP ranges
But the 2nd instance would never start..
If someone has any idea?
Thanks in advance.

try giving different settings for the all the following settings: net, dynip, statip, uamlisten, uamport, and uamuiport. If you are using any other options that have ports (proxyport, coaport, etc) you should also try picking different ports per chilli instance.

Thanks for your reply but my goal was to controle 2 differents LANs, one on each chilli. I want my 2 LANs to be on a differents IP ranges.
I'd like to get a solution where a user A is allowed to access to the LAN 1 but not to the LAN 2.

I don't know if this is possible but even if it is possible, it's complicating. You can always bridge the downlink interfaces if you want coova chilli to serve a few interfaces.
