mod_rewrite and Port 81

[Aes]

In order to use mod_rewrite on my server, two conditions have to be met:

1. httpd-fat has to be enabled.
2. I have to use port 81.

Now, the first condition I have set up and is working. However, I'm unsure as to how to use port 81 on my webserver. I was given this piece of code to place in the .htaccess file, but it doesn't appear to be working correctly. If anyone can give me insight, tips, tricks, or explain the coding below, I will be very appreciative.

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST}	!^fully\.qualified\.domain\.name [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST}	!^$
RewriteCond %{SERVER_PORT}	!^81$
RewriteRule ^/(.*)		(Link: http://fully.qualified.domain.name:%{SERVER_PORT}/$1)http://fully.qualified.domain.name:%{SERVER_PORT}/$1 [L,R]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST}	!^fully\.qualified\.domain\.name [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST}	!^$
RewriteRule ^/(.*)		(Link: http://fully.qualified.domain.name/$1)http://fully.qualified.domain.name/$1 [L,R]

Thanks.

Your web server has to be configured to listen on port 81 using:

Port 81

or

Listen 10.10.10.10:81
# replace 10.10.10.10 with your service IP

if you are using NameVirtualHosting, you'll want an entry something like the following:

NameVirtualHost 10.10.10.10:81
<VirtualHost 10.10.10.10:81>
ServerName www.myotherserver.com
DocumentRoot /path/to/my/doc81
</VirtualHost>
