Yes, that's possible. You will have to login to the sage-vmware machine, by typing login: manage Once logged in, type $ sudo su passwd: sage then edit the file /usr/local/bin/notebook using vi or pico (you can apt-get another editor if you want). Somewhere in /usr/local/bin/notebook it says port=80. You can change that to port=whatever_you_want.
