I actually had it right the whole time.  The problem was Internet Explorer
the
WHOLE time.

It turns out to feed http on a different port, you only have to either add a

LISTEN <port#>

or change the standard port 80 to something else

port <#>

Even though I had done that it wasn't pulling up in IE for me.
Well, I was speaking with another friend of mine and telling him
all the different things I had tried.  He asked me if I was actually
typing in 'http://address' in the IE Address line.

Turns out that IE doesn't ASSUME the 'http://' on any port except 80.
So I went back in, made the changed to httpd.conf and then went to
http://192.168.0.10:1124 and BANG, there it was.

Called up a buddy of mine and had him try from the outside and BANG
there it was.

So thought I would follow up with all of you to 1:  Thankyou and
2:  Let you know about EVIL IE.
