Multiple instances of MySQL

Good morning all,

I have a situation where I am being instructed to allow a client to 
access MySQL remotely. We generally put those clients on a VPS and allow 
them free reign. In this case we cannot, they are on a shared host 
server. Opening our PIX to allow connections through to MySQL, and 
relying on MySQL security to be the sole protection, is not something I 
or my Network administrator is comfortable with.

Has anyone setup two instances of MySQL on the same server? One running 
just a client's DBs? Any advice would be helpful.

Thanks,

DAve
