Greetings

I have to temporarily move 2 bbs's and my mail hub to a vps. Two of the systems
use binkd. Can I run two instances of binkd with separate configs at once?

Yes, they'll both need different inbound and outbound directories. If your
binkd is listening for connections you'll need to change the inbound listening
port for one of them. Set..

iport 25555

or similar for one of them. Nodes will need to know to connect on that port for
that mailer.
