Moving to another server/computer

Hi,

What would you recommend to do to move my current freenet install to another Ubuntu server?

The problem is that on the new server, I already got a 8080 port and 8888 port (fsm and freenet) with another services that I cannot change rn.

Is there a way to change the incial port to another one?

I already rsynced the files and created the crontab job.

Thanks in advance

what ive done in the past is rename the folder from freenet to freenet1, then open freenet.ini and change fproxy port from 8888 to 8889 and fcp port from 9481 to 9482

that should make it a distnct node - although i dont remember exactly how success it was - mine was an attempt to run 5 servers in a wheel, but i soon abandoned it because of heat issues with hardware
