The easiest way is probably to install the desktop app on another pc with the IP of the 2nd NAS in the ui.properties file, but I'm just wondering if those familiar with crashplan know of a way to make it work from one PC?
In short, leave the serviceHost line commented out in ui.properties and set servicePort to 4200 instead.
