Topic: Webserver on different port than 80

I'm having punbb on a public webserver but wants to move it to my own server at home. The problem is that my ISP is blocking port 80 so I'm running the webserver on port 80 on a local server and rederecting my gateway from port 3000. But now when I try to logon, the server seponds with 'wrong user/password'. If I register a new user than everything works fine. Is it possible that using http://somedomain:3000 in opions do not work?

I did that for a while and it worked fine, although I was running the local webserver on the same port as was being redirected.

I like soup.

Re: Webserver on different port than 80

I would run your webserver on the same port you access it from. Otherwise, cookie information and other things might be messed up.
