.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
Please read the pod on Net::Server first.  This module is a
personality, or extension, or sub class, of the Net::Server module.
.PP
This personality is intended to allow for easy use of multiple
Net::Server personalities.  Given a list of server types,
Net::Server::MultiType will require one at a time until it finds one
that is installed on the system.  It then adds that package to its
\&\f(CW@ISA\fR, thus inheriting the methods of that personality.
.SH "ARGUMENTS"
.IX Header "ARGUMENTS"
In addition to the command line arguments of the Net::Server base
class, Net::Server::MultiType contains one other configurable
parameter.

May be called many times to build up an array or possible
server_types.  At execution, Net::Server::MultiType will find the
first available one and then inherit the methods of that personality
.SH "CONFIGURATION FILE"
.IX Header "CONFIGURATION FILE"
\&\f(CW\*(C`Net::Server::MultiType\*(C'\fR allows for the use of a configuration file
to read in server parameters.  The format of this conf file is simple
key value pairs.  Comments and white space are ignored.
