Change the port for central admin

This came up in class today and one my students Eric knew the answer off the top of his head. It was so simple I thought I would share.

Stsadm –o setadminport –port 5555

This command will change SharePoint Central Administration v3 to run on port 5555. Even cooler? Didn't take a reboot or iisreset to take effect, it just worked.

excellent tip - same command will also work in the pervious version to change the port of SharePoint Configuration Analyzer.
