That's trivial - most web server software is happy to use ports other than 80 if you tell it to, and it's not uncommon to see web servers running on ports 8000 or 8080, especially if they're run by regular users rather than root (which you need for port 80 on many Unix systems.) Does anybody know if the German ISPs were blocking XS4ALL's IP address just on port 80, on all ports, or on all but 25?
First they only blocked the IP-number of the web-server. After a while they blocked 2 complete C-networks because xs4all changed the IP-number of the webserver every half an hour. At this moment they don't block anymore after we removed the radikal 154 temporary from xs4all. After they stopped blocking xs4all we've put the issue back online of course :) We are now aiting what they will do next. Either stop this censorship or block all +60 mirrors. henk (SPG)
