Description:
When I try this operation, I get this error....

C:\Program Files (x86)\MySQL\MySQL Workbench 5.2 CE\utilities>mysqlreplicate --master=root@192.168.1.8:3306 --slave=root@192.168.1.9:3306
ERROR: You must specify two different servers for the operation.

It appears to be comparing just the port numbers to decide if the same server is being specified twice.

How to repeat:
mysqlreplicate --master=root@192.168.1.8:3306 --slave=root@192.168.1.9:3306

Suggested fix:
Compare both the server IP address/hostname and the port number - only raise error if both attributes match
