MacOS X: How to allow a server running on port 80?
BlitzMax Forums/BlitzMax Beginners Area/MacOS X: How to allow a server running on port 80?
| ||
Hello alltogether, it's a really silly question actually, but I just can't figure it out. I want to write a simple server, that serves the HTTP-protocoll (Port 80). The connection does work, when I let the programme run on port 8080, but Mac OS prohibits the connection on port 80. What can I do? Many, many thanks Simon |

The port may already be in use -- some other applications like Skype listen to port 80 as a fallback connection. You'll need to pull up a list of used poprts -- no idea how to do that on Mac, but under Windows there's the 'netstat' command, or 3rd party programs like TCPView... |
