I installed FUD on port 81 this morning to test it. We decided we would like to use it and wanted to move it to port 80. I changed the listenport to 80 in apache's httpd.conf and encountered all kinds of problems.

I looked through the PHP code and found the URL for images (and other things) is hardcoded to http://xxx.xx.xxx.xx:81/whatever.

This seems very inflexible to me. Why not use relative links so the code isn't so directly tied to the installation parameters? If relative links were used this would not be an issue.

Does anyone have a script to go through my installation directory and change all these values to the new ones?

This seems like a major design flaw to me. Does anyone have a way around this, or would I have to reinstall and then redo all the work I did in setting up groups, templates, etc?

Any information is greatly appreciated.
