Try virtual name hosting, you can then setup one site to use 80 and another
to use 8080

Hm. What you want to do is to have different virtual hosts for different
ports. Have you really read this?

http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/vhosts/examples.html

You will of course have one VHost with *:80 and another with *:8080, or
something like that.

I highly suggest that you look into using webmin and maybe usermin to
provide just the settings you want. It's good software for managing
this sort of thing.

This works fine. It's not quite what I wanted, as I now have to duplicate
some of the bits and bobs across the two virtual hosts, but I've made it
do what I want.

Many thanks,
