which does not appear in IANA site (http://www.iana.org/assignments/port-numbers): > http-alt 8080/tcp HTTP Alternate (see port 80) > http-alt 8080/udp HTTP Alternate (see port 80) But I suppose occupying port 8080 is not so good, e.g. when you run a web server using port other than 80. Before 5.5 tomcat uses port 8180 as a default, which is currently: > # 8162-8191 Unassigned by IANA. I think It's better to use port 8180, 8181 (or larger number) to not conflict with other uses, selecting unused one automatically as default (like postgresql) for tomcat6 and tomcat5.5 to coexist. # So do I in regard to the shutdown control port. Port 8005 is used by both tomcat6 and tomcat5.5 as default... -- YOSHINO Yoshihito <[email protected]> _______________________________________________ pkg-java-maintainers mailing list [email protected] http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/pkg-java-maintainers
