Port 443, is open by default and used for ssl so why would you want to turn it off?

hey wmrichard,

are you having trouble with accessing on 443 internally or externally?  or both...if both you have a malfunction from standard, and should raise a bug.
if external is this port being forwarded through to your server?

IMHO turning ssl off isn't the way to go, managing and securing mail and server management is something that really needs to be done with ssl encryption enabled.  

so if we can get to the bottom of why you can't access the pages and under what conditions the failure occurs it will be better.

We cant open the port in our router because another server needs it. That is the reason why we want to choose another port and i was wonderring if i can access the server-manager within my network.
