Virtual hosting while Apache and IIS5.0 having on PC
Hi,
I have IIS 5.0 (port 80) and Apache 2.0.50 (port 3080) on the same PC. When I want to set virtual host on Apache I must respect the port, therefore I always call URL there as http://www.domain.com:3080. Which I do not like.
>> Is there any option I can run virtual host on my Apache (3080) and be able to type only http://www.domain.com? <<
(I do not wish to have Apache on port 80 since I have virtual hosts on IIS port 80 and would create opposite problem like that, as well as I would like to avoid forwarding from IIS to Apache.)
Maybe what I ask is impossible....

Actually I would like to go on with Apache - it is my first step how to become Microsoft independent. I like MS products but I like free products like Apache, Mysql and php. I do not have IIS 6.0 so I guess I cannot use Windows virtual server. I think the IP address is the best solution, just have to define only one IP on IIS 5.0.
Thank you.
Thank you.
The Windows virtual server.
It works link virtual hardware - you can run windows , linux, netware on the same box and any other 86 os .

The problem is that IIS5.0 primarily takes "all" unassigned IP - I would have to strictly define binding to one IP with all vhosts on IIS. Otherwise Apache does not restart listening to 80. Then the options are: localhost, internal IP and public IP .?.?
as to 2.
I did not want forwarder.
