[cvsnt] Multiple CVSNT instances

[Trevor Leybourne]

Is it possible to run multiple CVSNT instances on the same server with
each instance managing a different set of Repositories?
 
We have a single multiprocessor server running a single CVSNT instance
which manages about 15 separate repositories. The issue we have is our
IT department want to ensure a clean backup is taken each night and shut
down CVSNT to perform the backup which currently takes between 1 and 2
hours. Since we are a global development shop, this isn't very helpful
to our developers. 
 
If we could run say 5 separate CVSNT instances (and I assume 5
LockServer instances as well?), each one managing separate sets of
repositories, we could setup the backup processes to only shutdown part
of the server, backup those repositories and restart. It would bring
each individual repositorys' backup time down to 10-15 minutes max (much
more manageable) and allow us to stagger when different repositories are
backed up (ie: the ones most used by the US for example would backup
during US nightime while the NZ/AU repositories would backup during
NZ/AU nighttime). 
 
Any ideas or thoughts?
