Re: [AG-TECH] AG3 and AG2.4 server on same machine

[Derek Piper <dcpiper@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

	Having just run into the same problem myself, I agree that would indeed 
be a smart idea. It would save editing of the config files just to move 
the port range. Many people aren't going to want to have to fiddle in 
order to get things to work.
	I'm not even sure why the default was kept the same between AG2 and AG3 
when it's obvious they'll have to be run side-by-side for quite a while 
as people gradually change over.
