apache still listens on reserved IP

[aww]

One of our servers has two IPs.

I checked the 2nd IP as reserved (it's used for exim only)

But apache still listens on that 2nd IP and responds at the server document root level (there are no sites assigned to that IP)

Do I have to edit httpd.conf directly?

Sorry, nevermind, I see there is yet another UI under apache configuration for apache reserved.

This is solved now (or feel free to delete the thread).

It's better to keep the thread for any future user who runs into the same issue so they know how it was resolved.

Hmm you know what, it's still running apache on the 2nd IP that has been reserved. Apache restarted and it's still responding.

Basically the reserved IP prevents users/accounts from being assigned the IP but it doesn't stop the IP from being listened to.

Will have to manually edit httpd.conf? That seems annoying since cpanel will periodically overwrite it.

Is it because of this?

# Default vhost for unbound IPs

<VirtualHost *>

Ohhh.... it's because of this

# Defined in /var/cpanel/cpanel.config: apache_port
Listen 0.0.0.0:80

    # Defined in /var/cpanel/cpanel.config: apache_ssl_port
    Listen 0.0.0.0:443

I cannot be the first person who doesn't want apache running on extra IPs ?
How is that possible? Why would cpanel default to binding on all IPs even if they are reserved in both apache reserved and system reserved?

Anyway, can I edit /var/cpanel/cpanel.config or is cpanel going to overwrite it every time?

Basically I need control over these two lines

apache_ssl_port=0.0.0.0:443
apache_port=0.0.0.0:80

Looks like someone asked the same question back in 2008 without an answer

AHA!

The setting is NOT in apache settings (because that would make too much sense).

It's under Tweak Settings -> System

Problem solved. Hope that helps someone in the future. Whew.
