There is a _much_ easier way. :-)
Make two subdirectories in your agent directory. One for Lugnet and
one for your standard news. Then make two shortcuts to start Agent.
In each one, edit the shortcut properties to change the "Start In"
directory to one of the new subdirectories. For instance:
Target: "D:\Program Files\Agent\agent.exe"
Start In: "D:\Program Files\Agent\lugnet"
Then when you start Agent using that shortcut, it will act like a new
install and run through the initial setup. Thereafter, all Lugnet
stuff will be in the lugnet directory.
Repeat the process for your standard news server. And for any other
servers you may want to connect to. Works like a charm.
