Put apache on port 88 or something...

In the httpd.conf file, the port directive.

Port 80 should be Port 88

I personally don't see why anyone would use ISS when you could use Apache...I mean, if you want to run more than 1 server, than run Apache and Apache 2 or sumtin.

i think if you are not very familiar with all the server settings and all that it might be best to just use the iis until you do know what u are doing.

its easyer to install than to be reading the http.conf, especially if you need to make changes.

however default port = 80, there are some isp outthere that block that port so you can not run it on default ( http://localhost/ )

in that cause i do suggest that you do change the port to 8080 :)

I used IIS and Apache at the same time.

Apache runs off of port 80.
IIS runs off of port 8080.

To access localhost on IIS, I have to access localhost:8080.

I agree. Only reason I use both on a server of mine is Apache2 for web, and IIS for FTP/SMTP etc.
