I think you need to setup a Virtual Host in the Apache configuration, thats the standard solution to have one or more Plone Portals run behind Apache. Here is a starting point: http://plone.org/documentation/kb/plone-apache/virtualhost Leave out the https parts in the beginning, you can add them later if you need https at all. Watch for the port number used (in this example 10080) at localhost, in a standard plone setup it's localhost:8080. After the setup is running, you can even close that port in the firewall (if one exists), it is not used external anymore. The virtual host is addressed by port 80 as usual, and will forward all requests to your plone instance. _______________________________________________ Setup mailing list Setup@lists.plone.org https://lists.plone.org/mailman/listinfo/setup
