See, I already have an awesome server up and running. I tried to make another server, but it is on the same port. I don't know how to run 2 SEPARATE servers, so I can run 2 at once.

I CHANGED THE THINGS THAT SAID "25564" "25566" AND "25566" TO "12344" "12346" 12346 AND THE THING IN SERVER PROPERTIES TO 12345 BUT IT WONT WORK! SOMEONE GIVE ME CCCCCCLEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRR ANSWERS! I'VE BEEN AT THIS FOR A MONTH NOW AND AS YOU CAN TELL I AM REALLY PISSED OFF AT IT.
Getting pissed isn't going to solve your problem and will most likely cause more.
Secondly, what the hell does "Won't work" mean? We need specific errors, etc.
To run multiple servers on 1 ip you need to do the following.
1) Create two or more minecraft server directories (Cannot run multiple from one.)
2) edit the config file for each to use a different port
3) port forward each port to the same IP as you would when runnng one server.

For the sake of clarity, how does the client connect? Do they specify the new port? I'm assuming they would otherwise they would be directed to the primary MC game rather than the secondary one.
So if the main server is on port TCP 25565 and the second port was on TCP 25566 then would you connect like this:
mc.mydomain.com <- for primary
mc.mydomain.com:25566 <- for secondary?

No, you would need to specify the port for either one. Although, I'm not 100% sure, but I believe if you do not specify a port, it defaults to 25565, so in your situation what you've laid out may be correct. :biggrin.gif:
Can I run 2 at once and how?
You can host multiple ones from the same IP. I think OP only has 1 IP. You just need to change the port (and make sure to forward the new port!).

Technicall you can use any port from 1-65535, but for simplicty I'd stick with something like 25566, 25567, etc.

I wouldn't use port 80, neither would I portforward that one if I was you!
