Yes, but that starts to be a problem when you have many AS2 partners. What if
the first 5 partners were all flexible, and allowed port 8081 and the new
partner wants only 4080? We would have to change 5 configurations in order to
satisfy #6 ;-(

Shan's reply also mentions another alternative - listening on multiple ports.
I'll have to see if the existing software can do that...
