Can you run multiple instances of Shibboleth for SP?

I interpreted the question differently, with the focus being on whether or
not one linux server could run independent IdPs.  I've run multiple IdPs
behind one httpd, so I expected the answer was "yes".  :-)  I don't see why
one cannot host separate IdPs for RoboSquirrels.biz and ThreeWalnuts.org on
the same linux server as virtual hosts behind an Apache httpd.

In our case, the IdPs were separate development instances of the same
production service, so none of them were production.  Maybe something would
have broken under load?  I can't think of what it would be.  Anyway, all of
the IdPs were in separate installation directories
(/home/<user>/shibboleth-idp/), but I expect it would behave the same if
they were installed in /opt/shibboleth-idp/robosquirrels/ and
../threewalnuts/.

It begs the question of whether or not that's really what you need or want
to do, though.  Good luck!  -Les
