Changing http&https apache ports
Hi all
I'm wondering If its possible to change to higher ports the default ones for apache (http 80 and https 443).
The question is that I would lile to access some addons over Inet, but I cant map a high port on router to a lower port on the nas. I just can to map same port numbers....
So the possible configurations are:
80 router -> 80 nas (no, security problems)
10000 router -> 10000 nas (ok this is what I'm looking for)

- I would say you need to get a different router. Or look into if you router supports DD-WRT firmware: http://www.dd-wrt.com/site/index
Changing the ReadyNAS configuration in the way you want is not supported and a firmware update would overwrite those changes. mdgm wrote: Changing the ReadyNAS configuration in the way you want is not supported and a firmware update would overwrite those changes.
The firmware update isn't a problem, after new update I must just change the configuration again.... that's all.
About the router replacement isn't possible at all, because at the moment I'm using the router provided by the Inet provider.- Take a look at /etc/frontview/apache/httpd.conf
- Yes I know that file........but I was looking for more information previous to change the file.....You know, I don't need problems around that change....
- On file /etc/frontview/apache/httpd.conf I can see two Listen comands, one for port 80 (http) and another one for port 443 (https).
In this directory I can see a file named Virtual.conf. The contents for this file are:
NasLocal01:/etc/frontview/apache# cat Virtual.conf
#vers=2
<VirtualHost _default_:80>
SSLEngine off
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^/admin$ https://%{SERVER_NAME}/admin
RewriteRule ^/admin/(.*)$ https://%{SERVER_NAME}/admin/$1 [R,L]
</VirtualHost>
Whats the meaning of this file and this contents? Somebody knows? - I've change the Listen port values in http.conf and the port value on Virtual.conf.
frontview/admin is just the only application that is not working properly...
frontview/shares is ok
The addons, webdav, BitTorrent, Transmision, nTop, Remote are working fine..... - Next step....I redo the file Virtual.conf to original one.
This change make admin application works properly.
About addons, these not working (using admin panel) : nasmonitor, phplogcon, phpmyadmin...... (admin panel have fixed directions to port 80)
Not working addons (admin panel) are accessible through direct access to them. - All working fine......just not working the direct launcher on admin addons page....
The direct access to all applications working fine.
