Re: [e-smith-devinfo] APACHE and SMTP Listen Port - SME 5.6 or 6.0

[Tim Litwiller]

My isp here in kansas will block your mac address ( no traffic allowed 
either way) at thier routers if they don't get a error timeout when 
trying to access port 80, so it either has to be blocked in the firewall 
or httpd can't be running on that port on the external interface.

Has anyone written interface to change Apache and SMTP Listen port
   

I'd suggest that a better (simpler) approach is to leave the applications
listening to the standard ports, and use iptables DNAT (port forwarding) 
to redirect incoming traffic on a non-standard port to the standard port.

You might even be able to do this with the port-forwarding panel (or could 
do it, with some small modification to that panel).
