And do I change the > http in the same place? I guess it all depends on which ftp- and http-server you are using. In my config file for proftpd I've put: Port 2121 I'm hence using 2121 for my ftp-server. In my config file for Apache I've put: Port 80 I'm hence using 80 for my http-server, which of course could be changed to something different.
