My guess is that your server isn't calling itself the right thing, but that 
doesn't explain why it runs on port 8080.  I am not sure if this is right for 
CERN (I use Apache now), but try editing the httpd.conf (or whatever it is 
called) and add a line similar to 
  ServerName host.foo.com
I hope this helps.
