mhansel739 0 Posted January 28, 2004 Ok...I am still a newbie as well, but I can help you with this. You need to modify your httpd.conf file and find the Listen section. There, you can change what port the Linux box listens on from 80 to, say for example 8080. You can use whereis httpd.conf to find the file. Navigate to that folder, and edit the file using emacs or vi - which ever editor you find most comfortable. I hope this helps. Share this post Link to post
