Unable to create a virtual host with Apache on any ports other then 80

[pcarlos853]

Hello, I have just installed Ubuntu Server 10.10, and I installed Webmin 1.520. When I goto Servers --> Apache Webserver --> Create Virtual Host --> I leave everything the default settings but change: Port 81 and Document root "/var/www2/" Then I restart Apache. But when I go to 192.168.1.4:81 I get Firefox can't establish a connection to the server at 192.168.1.4:81 . I have no idea what I am doing wrong. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I had to add this to /etc/apache2/ports.conf

NameVirtualHost *:88
Listen 88

Works for me now.

Here's /etc/apache2/httpd.conf:

<VirtualHost *:88>
    ServerName mars
    DocumentRoot /var/www/port88
</VirtualHost>
