Re: [Mailman-Users] Fire Wall Ports - 80, 25, others?
Does anyone know if the mailman web pages can be hosted on alternative ports than 80 & 443? University IT would like to block them.

Thanks for the confirmation. To clarify, I'm using subscribe_policy = "Confirm", so I like to have users be able to confirm via the website. (I've seen confirmation requests end up in the moderation queue instead of being acted upon automatically, and since we lack the resources to daily read though what is nearly 99% junk, some users are left hanging.) Good to know that port 80 should be open to the entire world, with the exception above.
For ssh, I have a a VPN connection that lets me access the server, so that can be closed to the world and I still get what I need.

You can configure your web server to listen on any port you like.
The things you'd need in Mailman are
DEFAULT_URL_PATTERN = 'http://%s:pppp/mailman/' PUBLIC_ARCHIVE_URL = 'http://%(hostname)s:pppp/pipermail/%(listname)s'
in mm_cfg.py where pppp is the port you are listening on, and then run fix_url to update the lists for the new DEFAULT_URL_PATTERN.
