Not that I'm aware of.  The server checks for open ports before telling 
the clients (in the UDP packets) what ports to communicate with the server 
on.  There *is* the possibility of port conflicts on the clients (since 
all the UDP requests to go 10080), thus the limitation of clients only 
being in one config at a time.

Err, why?  I don't think so.

I think so.  :)

To be clear, I run two configs simultaneously on one of my servers, each 
using 1 of the 2 AIT3 drives in my library.  It works flawlessly.
