even with "visual tools" you still need a connection string and that's all
it is.
If you want the 2 serverrs simultaneous, then just install FB, choose to not
start the server at install time. Go to the .conf file and edit the port to
3051 instead of 3050, then start the server.

We all have to read the release notes sooner or later no matter which tools
we use
