Is there a way that I can change the default port on my server? From port 80 to 8000? 80 is blocked.

Since it sounds like it's a home server to me, what server software/device are you trying to host off of your connection? I can help you out if I'm familiar with the program or device. But yes, it is possible to change the port that the server runs on. You just need to make sure that you re-apply the port forwarding rules (you shouldn't be running a PC in the DMZ for a server UNLESS it's been hardened down a lot) and the firewall rules as well.

Im using apache, and it runs off 8000. I want my users to NOT have to type in the port.
For example:
mydomain.co.cc:8000
to
mydomain.co.cc

If I remember right co.cc doesn't have an option for that, but I know http://www.no-ip.com/ does.

is it a free service? I am using No-IP right now, and I dont know which service to use.

[Smith6612]

No-IP is a good service to use. Since you're not using Port 80, just have No-IP do a Port 80 Redirect on your account so that users don't have do to http:// *siteurl*:8080 in order to visit your site.

Yeah, but It either redirects or is masked. Is there any other way?
