How to "alias out" port 8080?

Hi,

I am trying out a Tomcat 4.0 beta and was wondering if there is a way to
"alias out" the port.  So for instance, I would like to enter:

http://myorg.org/stuff instead of

http://myorg.org:8080/stuff

Is this possible?

Thanks in advance for any help!

Posted by Pete Freitag <pf...@cfdev.com>.
If you change your config to run the server on port 80 instead of 8080 your
web browser will assume http://myorg.org:80/ when you type http://myorg.org/
since port 80 is the default port for http.
