    i have a pc with ubuntu 7 the last version and every thing is running ok
    i have an executable program which called (DM) it runs in the /var
    folder and it needs another folder called /var/code for the configration
    i want to know how to run 2 (DM) program and with TWO differant configrations
    the problem is the program (DM) have the path inside to look for the configration in /var/code
    i wanna to know how to overide this path to make two code folders one in the /var and the other in the (/) and make the two (DM) program run in the same time with 2 differant configration


    thanx in advance

    I guess if there's nobody else here, who nows that programm "DM" this information does not really help.
    Next question is, if this idea of running two instances of "DM" with seperate configs is possible by design of this product. An for this the producer should be able to give you an answer.

    if it is urgent, I would run the second instance in a virtual machine (e.g. VMWare)

    Difficult to help if we have no idea what this 'DM' does. dm is usually a device manager, can't imagine you would want two copies of that running. dm-crypt is a disk encryption system, ditto.
    If it is an Ubuntu package, then you might have more luck in the Ubuntu forums?
