Getting Results with Novell Web Services
The server port number specifies the TCP port that the server listens to. The
port number you choose can affect your users. If you use a nonstandard port,
then anyone accessing your server must specify a server name and port
number in the URL. For example, if you use port 8090, users wanting to
access your server from their Web browsers would specify the following:
http://www.novell.com:8090
The standard unsecure Web server port number is 80; the standard secure Web
server port number is 443. Technically, the port number can be any port from
80 to 65535, but because many other services are using other ports, you should
carefully choose your ports.
IMPORTANT:
Before changing the Web server's port number, refer to
F, "Port Number Assignments," on page
At times you'll want the server to answer to two URLs. Your system must
already be set up to listen to multiple IP addresses. For information on
configuring multiple IP addresses, refer to
Servers" on page 71.
The server's Message Transfer Agent (MTA) host is the name of the Simple
Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) mail server. See the following section,
