Subject:  Re: public variables
This has nothing to do with the fact that you are running two separate virtual hosts.  Public variables are only visible within a single process of VFP.  Each channel runs in a separate VFP process, so if your two requests happened to be served by a different channel, then they would not be able to see each other's public variables.  As long as your code works as expected, you should have no more connections than the number of channels.

Hi,
I have two foxweb licences and I'm serving two domains from the same server. 
My question is about public variable visibility from requests from one domain to another.
Let me clarify with an example.  I use fw_enter to check if a database connection has been established like so :
If VarType(gnDBConnection) = 'U'
   Public gnDBConnection
   *-- Code for connecting to database
EndIf
I tested after restarting foxweb (configured with 1 channel) with a call to each domain's web site.
After my test I had two connections, one to each SQL Server database.  To me that says that public variables are not shared between domains. 
Is my assumption correct ???
Thanks,
Gabriel
