Use multiple PCs and preferably multiple Internet connections.

Is no problem on one PC running multiple instances (tremded.exe), when You have strong bandwitch and machine.

Alright, if we're going to do generalizations, then: Yes it's possible.  How to do it depends on specifics (starting with your OS).

Hrm, Winders.. alright, I'm tapping out.

I think the answer is that yes, your computer could run more than one server, I just don't know how to setup the directory structure on Windows to do it.  I do know it would involve calling tremded.exe twice, one with the option "+set net_port 30721" (or something else non-standard).

Yes running 2 or more servers on windows consists of changing the tremded for each.

changing the port will do this but every server will/would be running the same qvm same admins same settings unless you change tremded to use different ones.

+set admin1.dat +set server1.cfg and so forth

Running them all under the same account fails as they all try to write to the same files resulting in inconsistent files and data loss.
Give each server its own user.

I'm sorry i made a mistake in my last post.
It is not +set admin.dat its +exec admin1.dat and +exec server1.cfg

Shouldn't it be "+set g_admin_?? admin.dat"?
Execing a non-cfg gets a lot of spammy errors.

It should be possible to run them all in the same user, just make a number of different server configs.  In them, just make sure you set "g_admin <admin_file>" and the logfile (which I forget how to do) for each server.  I believe you need to set the port at startup...

If i want to run two servers i just get two tremserver.bat's and rename one to test, then i use the test one if i want to test a mod, qvm or something, but it does show up on list if i set dedicated too 2 so it does work  :D

How about you do it this way without creating multiple users and using so much memory. 
Windows has a memory problem so running multi users will eat your memory alive.  Trust me I have hosted from windows and know.  I still use windows for a lot of stuff accept for hosting now. 

Anyways do it this way.

In Program files create a new folder called whatever for example mine would be: Trem2
Copy all files from your tremulous folder to the new folder "Trem2"

Now create a shortcut by right clicking on Tremded.exe and sending it to desktop.  Now open it up and make sure the paths are correct.

Now on the command line you type this: tremded.exe +set dedicated 2 +set fs_game base2 +exec server.cfg
"fs_game" is what points the exec to that folder to exec the admin.dat and places server.log etc.
