bind apache to a specific port.

Admin > Sentora Config > ctrl+f > Sentora Apache Port

Also,
Admin > Module Admin > Apache Config > ctrl+f > Apache Port

You have to set the both.
I have Varnish running in front of Apache so that's what I did and it works nicely.

config settings:
Senotoa Apache Port: 80
Module Apache Port: 80
result:
# Configuration for Sentora control panel.
Listen 80
<VirtualHost *:80>
# DOMAIN: test.domain
<virtualhost *:80>

config settings:
Senotoa Apache Port: yy.yy.yy.yy:80
Module Apache Port: xx.xx.xx.xx:80
result:
Listen yy.yy.yy.yy:80
Listen xx.xx.xx.xx:80
# Configuration for Sentora control panel.
<VirtualHost *:yy.yy.yy.yy:80>
# DOMAIN: test.domain
<virtualhost *:xx.xx.xx.xx:80>

As you can see from the second example this does not result in proper virtualhost entires. I used xx.xx.xx.xx and yy.yy.yy.yy in this example just to show what config field results in which output entry. The Problem ist just the leading "*:" in the virtualhost lines.

This means it is possible to change the port the apache server is running on, but not to limit the ip-address to a single ip address. The only solution would be to change the line in the code that creates the virtualhost entry.

Code:

       $vhostPort = ( fs_director::CheckForEmptyValue( $rowvhost[ 'vh_custom_port_in' ] ) )
                    ? $VHostDefaultPort
                    : $rowvhost[ 'vh_custom_port_in' ];

       $vhostIp = ( fs_director::CheckForEmptyValue( $rowvhost[ 'vh_custom_ip_vc' ] ) )
                  ? "*"
                  : $rowvhost[ 'vh_custom_ip_vc' ];

Something like adding a VHostDefaultIP would maybe help here. I could do that changes to the code, but thats inside the core of the application and i am sure future updates would break that again. Any suggestions how to go on?
