Maybe a program that will tell me it has recieved requests or packets on that port, something that runs on my machine. I know there are programs like that , I just am not familiar with the name or usage, so would appreciate a tip on it. THank you for your response though - at least I know that i didnt "mess up" with apache, esp since I can access my page on port 8000!
Try "nmap -v localhost" -- or preferably "nmap -v <yourmachine>" from another machine on your LAN, since some ports will be open to yourself but closed to the outside.
