Listen directive in ApacheNT?
I stuck a "Listen 81" line in my httpd.conf on my ApacheNT setup. The
server is responding to requests on port 81, but it is no longer answering
requests on the default port 80. The Listen directive is supposed to
define addtional ports to be listened to, is it not? Perhaps something
that isn't working in the NT version?

Then that's a bug in the NT version ... I've got two listen directives in
one of my common test configs and it was working last week on unix.
But yes the comment is wrong.

Then the comment in httpd.conf sucks.
This is what it says:
# Listen: Allows you to bind Apache to specific IP addresses and/or
# ports, in addition to the default. See also the VirtualHost command
To me that means that any ports I mention here will be in addition to the
default port given by the Port directive. If that's not the case, I think
we need to change this text.
And, putting:
Listen 80
Listen 81
doesn't work. It only listens on port 81 in this case.

Nope, if you use a Listen directive you override all default behaviour.
You'd need a Listen 80 in addition to Listen 81.
