Plone on ubuntu port 80

Question

I followed the plone install guide from the docs.

It goes well and I can access Plone at localhost:8080 . Now I'd like to change the port to 80 so I edit the buildout file, change http-address = 8080 to http-address = 80 , build the thing and restart the plone service.

I'd expect to be able to access it now without the :8080 suffix but alas...

How can I achieve this?

As sdupton says in the comments, don't do it.

Use Nginx to front it.
