Port is irrelevant unless you invoke it in your configuration.

If so, how 'bout an example > or two? Yes. Joshua gave you a sample configuration. I would add that there is no requirement for the virtual hosts to be on different ports - they could perfectly well be NameVirtualhosts on the same port. Or even a single host. You and one or two others asked supplementary questions following Joshua's answer. Can I direct you to my article at http://www.apacheweek.com/features/reverseproxies regarding reverse proxy questions? -- Nick Kew --------------------------------------------------------------------- The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project.
