Re: Multiple Telnet server Instances on on IBMi partition -- MIDRANGE-L

I have a mobile handheld scanner from zebra running a version of android
kit kat that I am trying to connect to the IBMi.

The IBMi's SSL certificates common name does not match the IBMi's host DNS
name and the android based telnet client will not connect
to the IBMi due to the name mismatch.

I really do not want to change the certificate used to secure the
production telnet server and risk breaking telnet sessions, but I need to
connect
the new handheld to the production system for testing purposes.

I checked the telnet books and don't see a way to start a second server
bound to another ip-address on the server (and I knew it was a long-shot)
but it would be nice to put another telnet server side-by-side the current
production server.
