Hi All,

Bought a 2nd pi and have duplicated my original system to it. Can I simply change the port number to, say 1881, and access both independently?

You don't need to change the port as the new Pi will have its own ip address on the network.

But for reference, you can set the port in your settings file.

Ahh, thanks! I haven't tried accessing the editor on pi #2 yet, but this could explain why I'm not seeing any conflicts involving N-R on pi #1.

Thanks!
