Web Server on Port 8080

[Comcast]

I have multiple development nodes on my network so each machine has a
different port for the web server. On one particular machine I'd like to
change the web port to 8080, but then when I try to start a new ASP.NET web
project and it goes out to check the server, it doesn't find it. I've tried
playing with the proxcfg.exe utility to change the default http: proxy
server to localhost:8080 but that doesn't seem to help.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

Are you using VS.NET? If you specify the address http://mysite:8080 when you
create the Web application in VS.NET, does it create it and find it?

Yes, I'm using Visual Studio.Net. Where would I specify this each time I
start a new project? Is there someplace where I could just tell it to
permanently look at http://localhost:8080 instead of http://localhost which
it is now? (picture attached)
