Working with multiple websites and ports

I'm running CF10 developer edition on my local machine. I was wondering if it is possible now that CF is on tomcat to run multiple websites on different ports. I don't know the technical terminology for this, but I'm pretty sure in order to do it in CF9 you had to have IIS manage it.

This will summerize what I'm trying to accomplish.

Website             Path to Website Folder                                             Local URL (Port)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Website 1 ------> C:\ColdFusion10\cfusion\wwwroot\Website1\ ---------> http://localhost:8500/

Website 2 ------> C:\ColdFusion10\cfusion\wwwroot\Website2\ ---------> http://localhost:8501/

Website 3 ------> C:\ColdFusion10\cfusion\wwwroot\Website3\ ---------> http://localhost:8503/

Thanks in advance!

Bob

I just found the Instance Manager inside the ColdFusion admin which allowed me to do what I needed to do. Thanks!

What you're wanting is exactly the way a CF multi-server install has worked since CFMX 6.0.  That's the default behaviour.

Tomcat (CF10) works slightly differently from JRun (CFMX6->CF9) in some areas, but this area is the same.
