Add a 2nd connection to the same host

Hello,
is it possible to add a 2nd connection to localhost on a separate port?
I tried it already but when connecting to it I get:
Cannot connect to the server

Do you mean you need StarWind to listen to 2 different TCP/IP ports?
It is possible, but you need to edit the config file (StarWind.cfg) manually and add the following rules:
Code: Select all
<connections>
<connection value="127.0.0.1:3260"/>
<connection value="192.168.0.1:7777"/>
...
</connections>
After restarting the service it will listen to the interfaces/ports.

valery,
thanks a lot for your response. Yes I want a solution for 2 connections (on different TCP/IP ports) on the same machine.
Your solution seems not to work on my machine because the 2nd connection does't shop up in the config tool - perhaps I have to update my version from 3.2.2 to 3.5.4. I'll give it a try later.

Yes, the feature is available only in recent versions.
It should work well in v3.5.4+
