I had it setup so all websites on a server could goto http://www.website.com:8383 and it would all goto the same directory. I did this by just inserting a blank record into IIS with using the port number 8383. Everything has been working perfect for the longest time and it just quit one day. I believe it might of quit after installing a windows update on the server. Anyone have any ideas?

do you have a firewall running ?

it is not a good idea to run websites on ports other than port 80, a lot of people will be prevented from visiting it due to firewals and port restrictions from their ISP

I had http://www.website.com:8383 going to a asp script that would forward the user to the webmail site to make it easier for everyone to remember the webmail address

Nope

I found out that port 8383 was now being blocked by the firewall.
