I have a system that is set up much like you have outlined ( almost identical ). I have a problem though when I turn off the Admin Web Listener. If I shut it down, the other listener I have just hangs. I ended up locking up files that the Admin listener can access to not allow others to to anything. I would still like to shut down the Admin listener, but dont know what I have configured wrong.

Thanks for any advice.
