Hummm.. not sure if I understand what you mean with 'goes to port 80'... This is what I just did: <VirtualHost *:80> ServerName cups ProxyPass / http://localhost:631/ ProxyPassReverse / http://localhost:631/ </VirtualHost> (cups runs on port 631 on my system) and I can get cups' interface by using http://cups/. Of course, this goes to port 80 on my system and is then 'proxied' to port 631. What you mean with "goes to port 80" ? What sort of result you get in your browser? What remains in your error_log or access_log ?
