Hi Angel,
        Other option is TDS (Thredds Data Server), this will require some 
configuration setting. It doesn't have the web interface for you to do the 
configuration like RAMADDA. In the configuration, you can specify the port 
number. Port 8080 is the default port and can be changed. 

         The advantage of RAMADDA is that it is not only run as a data server 
for the IDV users, it can also used as the repository for the IDV users to 
share their bundles and other information, to publish their data and results. I 
would strongly recommend you to try the RAMADDA server.
