I thought maybe I'd like to try having two servers. One with gnus running and another for some perl scripting I'm working on. Reading parts of the documentation I see: (info "(emacs)Emacs Server") You can run multiple Emacs servers on the same machine by giving each one a unique "server name", using the variable `server-name'. For example, `M-x set-variable <RET> server-name <RET> foo <RET>' sets the server name to `foo'.

There are several ways to set it (with --daemon=myname, or --eval, or M-: (setq ...)), but you're right: the documentation states that it is settable with set-variable, and it is not.
