Description:
I have a 3.23 server on port 3306 and a 4.1 server on port 3307.
If i connect to the 4.1 server on port 3307 it shows the right information on the "server information" page and other pages. But on the "service control/configure service", "startup variables" are the values from the 3.23 server on port 3306.

How to repeat:
Install two servers on different ports.

Verified having 1 my.ini for 2 servers.

Service Control shows the values from the other server too.

To work with multible instances on one machine you have to start the MySQL Administrator with holding Ctrl in the connection dialog and press the skip button.

This will skip the connection to one specific server and give you a list of all instances.

We will fix this when the Instance Manager is capable of returning the information.

I port forward MySQL Administrator to another computer for SSH.  I also have this problem with Administrator reading the remote db, but all the server names and variables are from the local machine.  The actual data parts work fine.  I have also had some random disconnects in Administrator when it tries to read the server info while connected to the remote machine, like it is trying to connect to the local machine through the remote port after reading the local server info on accident.
