[Setup] Re: Port selection problem with Plone on Mac OS X

[Alexander Limi]

You need to either:

a) turn off apache and run Plone on port 80
b) insert a proxy or rewrite rule in apache that redirects requests to the  
Plone server.

The latter one is covered in the Apache setup docs on  
plone.org/documentation.
