I want to change the default port 80 for the in windows proxy 2.0 on a windows NT machine. Want to know how to go about doing this, i.e. what needs to be set, do i need to reboot, can i do this while people are logged into proxy server, whats a good port to use, other things to look out for, etc. Also i have surrogate socket running for citrix metaframe, i can just change the incoming port to the new port right, will there be any problems, does everyone have to log out of citrix?? Any kind of input will help. want to stop anonymous users from finding my proxy server on port 80. Thanks

Changing it from Port 80 to another port won't solve your problem of anonymous users finding it, as most these people will be using a port scanners to find the open ports.
