Thanks

Hi,
The file that needs changing 'at the end of the day' is /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf.
Sidenote: If you're not already familar with the 'custom-template' procedure for e-smith, I would suggest having a look at some of the linked web sites on the main e-smith page as a few of them carry useful bits on this.
To modify the 'main' port that Apache listens, you'll need to modify the line which reads:
Port 80
to something else. eg:
Port 8001
For simplicity, I would suggest it might be easier to investigate the use of 'virtual domains' instead. That way you can serve other ports without the loss of 'normal' services.
Regards,
Luke.
