Hello,

Currently I run 2 BU nodes. If I want to run an ABC node, as the port on which it listens is the same than BU, I've to stop one BU node.
If I change the port number, it should be announced by the "advertising address" message. So both nodes can cohabit. Am I correct ?
Thanks
Francis

You should be able to run two nodes on different ports, yes.

Just make sure they each have their own datadir , as the ABC blockchain data will diverge after Aug 1 .

If you'd like to chat with someone on Slack for more direct support,
sign up to BTCforks slack at https://btcforks.signup.team/

and go to #abc-support channel there. There's mostly someone hanging out there who can help.
