Do I need to change the port from 80 to some other port?

[Chatline]

Cannot start the web server (Listening problem): The web port is already used by another application.
Use the console to configure a correct web port.

When ever I do 'localhost' it comes up with my router settings, I guess this is using port 80. I think it's port 80, someone please tell me where to change it, cheers ;)

i've changed it to 81 is it ip:81?

Chatline, you need to go into your router settings and forward port 80 for the PC that has the server installed.
If you do that, you won't need to change port 80 to something else.

What is your router brand and model#?

Go to http://www.portforward.com/alcatel/st510-portforwarding.htm
for instructions to port forward 80 on your router.

You don't have to disable your firewall.
Just have your firewall accept connections to port 80.

Errrrr, well the firewall is built into the Router. I think thats why the only host the ftp prigrams are detecting is 10.0.0.1?
