Is it possible to have two different samba servers runnin on the same 
physical computer?

I have a sever dying and need to maintain connectivity for the computers 
that connect to it. It does not do autoentication, but it does have it's 
own name and has some shares available that need to be online.

Example:

\\serverone does authentication and login scripts, most shares, etc

\\servertwo has shares that contain programs run by some users.

I need \\serverone to point at it's regular samba servername and 
\\servertwo to point to a second samba server running on the same physical 
computer as \\serverone is on.

It possible?
