I also changed the Virtual Hosts to:
Code:
# Virtual Hosts, not sure if I am doing this right
<VirtualHost *:81>

I then restarted Apache and went back to the Drupal page to run the Clean URL script but to my surprise I was greeted by a blank page.
I must of changed the setting several times with no luck. I would really appreciate any help or direction in this matter.
Thanks in advance!
