I'd like to know. If not, then the multi-site method outlined at the Drupal site is what you = want. That method uses the same files (not another instance of each file) = for every Drupal site. For example, if you have 3 Drupal sites running on = the same server, they all use the same index.php file. So when you do a = portupgrade of Drupal, then all three of your Drupal sites will be = upgraded at once. Let me know if this doesn't make sense. - Gavin
