First of all lemme ask if there are any other ways to modify the port that a
system or IP binds to in W2k? I've stopped and disabled the IIS services and
modified the httpd.conf doc to show the following:
#Listen 80
Listen 8080
Listen 192.168.1.14:8080 #listen on this specified port

It doesn't matter what port I specify, I still receive this error stating
that it couldn't bind to an IP address.

<32548> Only one usage of each socket address <protocol/network
address/port> is normally permitted :make_sock: could not bind to
address 0.0.0.0:8080
no listening sockets available, shutting down
Any takers???

  Sure.  There really is no such thing as a "virtual address", anyway --
your computer has one or more IP addresses, and software can bind to any
particular one, or all of them by binding to "0.0.0.0".

  FYI, Apache has fairly good online documentation available at their
website:

        http://httpd.apache.org/docs

> Listen 192.168.1.4
> Listen Port 80
> BindAddress 192.168.1.4

  Not exactly.  There are two ways to specify what address/port Apache
listens on.  The old way used two directives, "BindAddress" and "Port",
which are supported for backwards compatibility.  The new, and (IMO) better
way, uses a single directive, "Listen", with syntax like this:

Listen 80                       # listen on all addresses, port 80
Listen 192.168.1.4:80           # listen on one IP address, port 80
Listen 192.168.1.4:5580         # listen on one IP address, port 5580

  More information is available here:

        http://httpd.apache.org/docs/bind.html

(The Apache site seems slow today, so if you have a local copy or mirror of
the documentation, that might be faster.)
