Jay, That is not the problem I am having. All of our DMZ sites sit behind a Load Balance switch and all run on port 8080. Our public facing domain names\IP addresses (Public URL's) are housed on the Load Balance switch and run on port 80. When someone hits our Public url, they hit the LB switch and the switch then knows where to drop it down to based on the config for that VIP address. The end user never knows the backend web server IP because it is all handled by the LB switch.
My issue was needing multiple sites to run, each on port 8080, but be able to stop and start each one individually. The have to run on port 8080 because that is what is allow to come back through our firewall to our internal BEA WL servers.
