Yeah your provider is way off. Web pages don't do anything but get served
up by apache.
Now if we were talking tomcat or jboss that would be different.
I'd go ahead and find a smarter hosting provider! Anyone who says stuff
like this instantly loses my trust and especially coming from a "hosting
provider".

That's what I'm thinking... I'll ask them for a port number. Maybe that helps tracking down the "problem".

Hmm that's weird. We run multiple OTRS installs on a shared webhost without a problem. OTRS is a web application which runs when requested, not a daemon running all the time. It definitely doesn't bind to a port. I think your hosting provider needs to check again.

Hello all, I have OTRS 2.2.1 installed on a shared webhost. The provider now claims that bin/cgi-bin/index.pl binds to a port and goes on about how I'm not supposed to run any "server software like IRC, game servers or daemons". Does anyone know why OTRS would bind to any port, and how I can disable it? My understanding is that OTRS would not need to bind to any port to listen for connections...
