Thanks for providing this, however there are several problems, some of which you outlined in your post. The canonical way to do what you're suggesting is to copy the script so that you have one script per process you want to start, each with a different $name. That way you avoid a lot of the complexity that you've created, and everything works. hth, Doug -- Nothin' ever doesn't change, but nothin' changes much. -- OK Go Breadth of IT experience, and depth of knowledge in the DNS.
