If they where a number your applications would not work. You do not have to use port 80 as the listening port for Apache - it is only the default. For instance you could use 1080. Your URL would then be http://www.mywebpage.com:1080/. However, if you move away from port 80 I doubt whether stuff like Google would pick you up. I guess it all depends on what you want to use the Web server for. > > Thanks. > Cheers -- Peter F Bradshaw, pfb@exadios.com, ICQ 75431157 (exadios). http://www.exadios.com PGP public key at http://www.exadios.com/public_key.html "I love truth, and the way the government still uses it occasionally to keep us guessing.
