"Web Proxy service failed to bind its socket'" Have you tried netstat to see if 8080 is listening and what is it that is listening?? netstat -a -b will show you what ports are listening and the executable associated with the listening port.

Just found out i'm receiving alerts for error 0x80072740, "Web Proxy service failed to bind its socket". This is on a SBS machine, so IIS is installed. I've successfully applied the WPAD workaround from what I can tell, clients manage to find it. I've determined that whenever a WPAD request is made, i see this alert (shows as 'Resource allocation failure'). In my generated reports, I still only see IP addresses. When I go to Internal Network Properties -> Web proxy -> Enable HTTP is set to port 8080. Internal Properties -> Auto Discovery -> 'Publish automatic discovery information' is checked and on port 80. Help....? Thanks. Jonathon J. Howey MENSE Inc.
