NAME
       Net::Server::MultiType - Net::Server personality

SYNOPSIS
	   use base qw(Net::Server::MultiType);

	   sub process_request {
	       #...code...
	   }

	   my @types = qw(PreFork Fork Single);

	   Net::Server::MultiType->run(server_type => @types);

DESCRIPTION
       Please read the pod on Net::Server first.  This module is a personality, or extension, or sub class, of the Net::Server module.

       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
       @ISA, thus inheriting the methods of that personality.

ARGUMENTS
       In addition to the command line arguments of the Net::Server base class, Net::Server::MultiType contains one other configurable parameter.

	   Key		     Value	      Default
	   server_type	     'server_type'    'Single'

       server_type
	   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

CONFIGURATION FILE
       "Net::Server::MultiType" 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.
