    hi alltogether...

    I have a web server running, and I organized a dynamic Internet address. I want to reach a certain port by using the browser. Do I need a javascript code in a http server which checks out the IP and produces a link.
    or can I just write something in the Browser like the static ip:port

    Thanks

    Hi Mateor,

    If you server is accepting connections on a certain port then you will be able to contact this using a browser like this:

    website-address.com:port

    or

    static-ip.com:port

    Hope this helps :)

    Are you using Apache as a web server? If so then you can configure Apache to listen to a specified port using the Listen directive and then use a <VirtualHost> directive to specify what to do with a connection to that port when it receives one. Detailed information here:
