Hi Frank,

<< what other port can i use

You're free to use any port number you like (that isn't already being used.) In practice it's best to use a number > 1024. say 1443 or whatever.

>> is there anything else i need to do if i am using a different port

obviously set the port number to a value in the WebServer procedure. And...

the URL to get to the app changes, but that's the only difference.
eg https://www.capesoft.com becomes https://www.capesoft.com:1443

Cheers
Bruce
