Multi-Port Port Generation Script
Posted: Sat Jun 15, 2019 3:19 pm
I created a python script to automatically generate the entries you need to add to your ports.conf and virtual host file to enable multi port.
I have 76 monitors at one site and I screwed up the entires I needed to make in the ports.conf and virtual hosts file to configure multi-port so many times that I decided to write a script to automate the task.
The script will ask you what you would you like to use as the starting port number, how many monitors you have and if you are using HTTPS or not and generate the appropriate entries for you to copy and paste as well as where to put them on a ubuntu system.
The script can be found here:

you run it like this:
An example of using the script follows:
