After using the Windows feeder for several years, I have successfully migrated to feeding using the Linux/generic/i686/1.0.18-5 feeder. Many thanks to users abcd567 and others for the easy to follow instructions. I am also grateful that it was much less 'painful' than I anticipated.
While leaving that feed running as it is, I want to create a new feed to track an experimental antenna installation, without disturbing the original. Obviously the new feed will require a separate sharing key and a separate installation of the feeder software.
Is it possible/practical to run two instances of the FR24feed software on the same Linux box? This would be JUST the feeder, since the decoding would be handled by dump1090 running on a separate box and sent over the network. The two instances would each need to be using their own configuration files and ports.
So my question isn't how to feed data to multiple tracking sites, but rather how to run multiple instances of FR24feed on one Linux box?
Thanks
