running two newsgroup servers on the same machine.

[G Sudheer]

Hi all,

I am new to INN and i require some help....  hope somebody can help me.

We currently have a java NNTP server running as a leaf node. This server
is very slow which is making our feeder crash and lot of baby sitting
has to be done by the administrator of the feeder and he has stopped our
newsgroup feed.

In order to remove the headache for the adminstrator we thought that we
could set up INN (2.2) on our machine and have our java NNTP server
running on another port on the same machine so that we could takeover
the headache till we can find another alternative. The problem why i
cannot move to a complete INN installation is that the application code
is written for the java NNTP server.

So my questions are :
Is it feasible to have two newsgroups server running on the same
machine?
Can i have nnrpd send messages to a port other than 119 and that too on
the same machine?

Can somebody help me on this? Thanks in advance.

and Thanks a ton.

regards,
Sudheer.
