ASP.NET 2.0 building get '\server:port\' is not a valid virtual path

L

When I was creating an ASP.NET 2.0 web site on a site on a remote
server not on port 80 I was getting the error '\server:port\' is not a
valid virtual path.

This does not happen on my local server (which uses port numbers other
than 80).

I fixed it by adding a DNS entry and defining the website with this
host header name and having the site on port 80.

Does anyone why this happens? Is there another way to fix it so I can
build websites on ports other than 80?
