Topic: Port 80

[Mike Ransick]

I want to move my web page from port 80 to a high numbered port.  I changed all references tfrom port 80 to a port over 8000 using the templates, updated the templates, and ran httpd.  My web page still responds to 80 and not 8000.  Any ideas?

Is there any way to have the changes take affect without a reboot?

[CMG]

sure... how about this:

/etc/rc.d/init.d/httpd-e-smith restart
/etc/rc.d/init.d/httpd-admin restart

That should do it!

Which templates did you have to modify??? I am in need of doing the same port change.

[Mike Ransick]

I followed the directions for modifying templates at http://www.e-smith.org/custom/

Then I looked through the file /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf to see where to chage ports.  I then modified the template files located at /etc/e-smith//templates-custom/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf/ replacing all references to port 80 with a high numbered port.  To copy the templates follow the directions on the custom site by running

/sbin/e-smith/expand-template /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf

I then rebooted (because I am a newbie)

A post from CMG (none) explains how to do it without restarting.

/etc/rc.d/init.d/httpd-e-smith restart
/etc/rc.d/init.d/httpd-admin restart

Hope this helps.
