Hi All

Just a quick question

Is there any reason why I cannot use port 80 for ISA proxy requests

e.g. If I configure a client's IE to use the following

Address = Myproxy.com Port = 80

is this likely to break any thing in the real world

Cheers

Dave
 
The only problem I can see is if you have IIS running on the same machine, would cause some sort of conflict I would imagine. Other than that, you can run the proxy on whatever port you want!

Personally, I would stay away from using port 80, just to be safe.
