Or if you've got multiple IP addresses on the server (most Unix OSs will
let you have two IP addresses on one interface these days, or just have
two interfaces) then you can simply force the old and new to listen on
different addresses as in:

Server
{
  ..
  ListenAddresses = inet:192.168.0.2
  ...
}

That would be a much better solution.

Cheers,

Martin.
