how to have codeigniter on a port and http without codeigniter on another port?

yes, simply create another virtual host, set it to listen on all addresses for the port you want ie *:8080 will listen on all addresses port 8080 set the document root to your CI public directory and restart apache.

thats about all there is to it. I have linux box here at home that I have about 30 vhosts running on, and I serve one project over my DYNDNS domain. At work, I also use my hosts file to point specific domains to my home IP address. I have also found that I can use foxyproxy (set to send all DNS requests over the proxy) and connect to my office using putty (configured to work as a proxy) and my browser will use the DNS server at the office and I can connect (i.e. browse) to all of our internal web servers remotely without having to use the VPN (mostly because I haven't gotten it set up yet)
