This isn't a bind problem but an HTTP problem.
Your application that only can use port 80 is going to have to get some
'smarts' so that if the remote host is a port 80 client, to go ahead and
process commands.
If the remote host is a port 10080 client, then your port 80 app is
going to have to issue an HTTP redirect to port 10080.
