Hello.
Forgive me if this has been handled in the Archives. I've tried searching different key words but I haven't
found anything.

I have an apache server running on port 8000.
This necessitates typing http://www.myaddress.com:8000 to get to my home page.

I would like to be able to drop the ":8000" in the url and still have it work.

The relevant parameters in /etc/apache/httpd.config seem to be:
Port 8000 - I set this to get around my company's firewall
#Listen - This is commented out, but from the apache docs, I think this would just tell the server to listen on port 8000 (or the default 80) but that the port no. would still need to be specified in the url request (?) #NameVirtualHost *:80 - From the docs I can see how this can be used so that a single apache server can handle web requests to different ip:ports differently, but I don't see how it could be used for my purpose.

I guess I'm asking if there is any way to configure the server so that http:/www.myaddress.com is assumed to be on port 8000 rather than 80 ?

Thanks!

-Mike
