Sure you can!

Go to menu -> start / exit -> and deselect the 'Only 1 instance' button.

That makes it possible to run multiple HFS instances at once. (The only limit is that they cant run on the same port)

Just like you do with any other hyperlink, only this time you add the correct port to the link (Eg. :80 or :8080, depends on what port your second hfs is running)

Like i said in a previous post..

Go to menu, browse to 'Start / Exit' and deselect the 'Only 1 instance' button.

That makes it able to start multiple HFS instances at once

Do as Giant Eagle says above.  Once you make that menu change in start/exit, shut down HFS.  Then re-start.  Once HFS is running, you can start another instance of it by starting it again.  Then it will be running 2 times.  Just remember to change the port on one of those so they aren't running on the same port.

Hi!

I really don't need this feat. but if someone is really hosting multiple sites maybe would be happy if there would be an option to give HFS any icon in the tray. Hmm?

If I run more than one instance of HFS, I get more than one HFS tray icon - one for each server that's running.

There is only 1 icon.  But you can make some changes to the icon information for each server  you are running.  In Expert Mode, Go to...  Menu -> Tray Icon -> Tray Message ... and select different information for each server icon.  What would be different would be the port as each server would run on a different port.  Then when you hover you mouse over the icon it will show you that information so you will know which icon belongs to which server.

Why don't just use 1 HFS and 3 folders?
