    Hi all,

    I am a beginner of using Apache HTTP server 2.0.55, which is running in XP. I would like to ask two questions:

    1) how can I configure a specific port instead of using port 80?
    2) How can I configure HTTPS and SSL on this server by using a self-signed certificate?

    Thx a lot:D

    Edit the "httpd.conf" file.

    Find "Listen 80".

    Change this port number to the port that you'll be using on your webserver, like "8888".

    Find "ServerName".

    At the end of your server name, change port 80 to 8888.

    Close the file, save the changes, and restart the Apache server.
