[cod] Multiple Servers on one box and PB

[luke at techfreak.org]

Of course, there is a more 'elegant' way, but the guy is trying to
get his feet wet here. So, I suggested an easy method.

Also, I have run test after test and it doesnt take up any more RAM
to run multiple installations, as opposed to using base_path. Or are
you taking about using disk space?
