The difference being the 'Starting Ldev number'.  Well, I started
thinkin',
and figured that just maybe if I logged in over and over and over until I
got the port number up to 30, it might skip to 60!  AND IT DID!  whoa...

So, this weekend I'll change the 'Starting Ldev number' to -0- and we'll
see what happens!
