[jboss-user] [Tomcat, HTTPD, Servlets & JSP] - Can actual and alias IP share the same port

Hi all, I would like to explain my environment. FC4 Apache 1.3.36 JBoss 4.0.3SP1 Mod_jk 1.2.15 Apache is my front end server (serve static pages) and JBoss is the guy, do serve dynamic pages from back end. I have some applications (both SSL and non-SSL) to be deployed in Apache and JBoss. Apache is taken 80 to serve non-ssl applications, like JBoss taken 8080 and 443 ports for non-ssl and ssl applications. I have added the mod_jk module in Apache HTTP server, to forward the dynamic page requests (.jsp and .java) to JBoss. This environment is working fine with the following URL request, like http://static.http.non-ssl http://dynamic.jboss.non-ssl:8080 https://dynamic.jboss.ssl Here, I am being stumped by http://dynamic.jboss.non-ssl:8080 application, Is there any way to run "dynamic.jboss.non-ssl" application without using the port 8080 in URL, like http://dynamic.jboss.non-ssl At this stage, these are the options I tried: 1. I have created an alias IP (192.96.43.193) of my NIC (192.96.43.192) and changed JBoss port 8080 by 80 (used for non-ssl applications) and tried to run JBoss with 192.96.43.193 IP address. (given 192.96.4.192 for Apache HTTP server) command: sh run.sh -b 192.96.43.193 The JBoss server throws the Bind Exception, so I revert that port 80 to 8080. 2. I have given 192.96.43.193 to Apache and 192.96.43.192 to JBoss, I did not find any break through. I am almost lost here, my request is, I want to avoid the usage of port number in the URL of both JBoss and Apache server serve ssl and non-ssl applications.
