[Quickfix-developers] Getting an acceptor to accept multiple clients

[Hayyan R. <hay...@ho...>]

Hi I jsut wrote an acceptor in c++ using quick fix and a C# initiator connects to the acceptor and places an order. Thats all well and good. However i have a problem. the acceptor depends on a config file such as the one below

[DEFAULT]
ConnectionType=acceptor
SocketAcceptPort=5001
SocketReuseAddress=Y
StartTime=00:00:00
EndTime=00:00:00
FileLogPath=log
FileStorePath=c:\fixfiles
[SESSION]
BeginString=FIX.4.2
SenderCompID=EXECUTOR
TargetCompID=CLIENT1
DataDictionary=c:\fixfiles\FIX42.xml

the acceptor has to know the name of the initiator in advance before it makes a connection. IS there any way by which we can add multiple clients in this file currently the above file expects Client1 to connect since it has "TargetCompID=CLIENT1"  how can i make my acceptor accept connections from CLIENT2 and CLIENT 3??
