I thought that https automatically used > port 443. If that's correct then how does apache end up using port > 10000? Standard port for HTTPS is 443, that's true. See "grep 443 /etc/services". But you could define any other port if you wish. You could also define a different port than 80 for HTTP. But then you always have to access the site using HTTPS://URI:443 or HTTP://URI:80 Annotation to webmin: it does come with an own HTTP/HTTPS service, both by default configured to listen on port 10000. > Also, what ports would need to be open for this to work through a > firewall...both 443 and 10000? For webmin only you need to open just port 10000, inbound and outbound. > Gerry Doris <gdoris@xxxxxxxxxx> Alexander -- Alexander Dalloz | Enger, Germany PGP key valid: made 13.07.1999 PGP fingerprint: 2307 88FD 2D41 038E 7416 14CD E197 6E88 ED69 5653
