Port # for Apache....
Hi,
I have ported the Apache 1.2.4 to our flavour of SVR 4.2 unix. But, the
httpd fails to execute with the following error message:
bind: Cannot assign requested address
httpd: could not bind to port 80
I followed the instructions present in the httpd.conf file and checked in
other server's setup also. There is no other http daemons present in the
server in which I try to install apache. That port is not connected inbound.
But, it gives the same error to whatever the port number I set. (Ofcourse,
which are free!). Any lights on this?
Thanks in Advance!!

Are you ROOT when you install web server? Only ROOT can bind port
1-1024.

Trying specifying an explicit Listen directive with your IP address.
Sounds like it may be a buggy OS.
