Of course ... some programming may be required. At it's
most simple, have a daemon read the port and write/append to
a file.
Without knowing the nature of the two|three app's (batch,
real-enough time etc) it's difficult to offer any other
thoughts, but you get the general idea.
(I have had 'n' applications reading from a queue file in
the past, each keeping track of where it had got too--and
writing checkpoint records--with no problems.)
