how to test varnish with port 8080
Hello,
I'm trying varnish on a 64 bit machine on which the port 80 is already
active, so i use the port 8080 to talk to varnish.
I wondered if someone knew a way to tell firefox to use port 8080 by
default to avoid me the pain of adding :8080 on all my requests.
Many thanks for any ideas :)
Damien,

Use a redirect, proxypass, or rewriterule in the apache config
(assuming apache is the one hogging port 80) to send selected
requests to port 8080.
