I'm trying to get familiar with Mountain Lion OS X Server.

When I start Websites and access it using "server.local" or "localhost", I get a web page server from the directory - this is correct. Then, I started Wiki and access it at the same address. I get served from the Wiki server. So, does this mean that starting the Wiki server will always replace the Web site hosting service - they are mutually exclusive? How do I easily make the Web server serve at port 80 and 443, and set another port for the Wiki.

If I want to use HTTP realm to prevent anyone from accessing the Wiki, what is the easiest way to configure it? (Basically, I want to prompt for password whenever the wiki is access. That is, no public/global access even though the Wiki is hosted on the public Internet.) If this is not easy to configure, then I can consider setting up VPN.

Further, in this documentation, it says the collabd_url is running on port 4444. However, when I access it on that port, I get a blank page. Why?

And, on the same documentation page, there is a field called "use_sandbox_server" and the 'default' is "true". This setting is actually not found when I opened the 'collabcored.plist' file, and the Activity Monitor shows that it is not sandboxed. Can anyone provide some clues on what's happening?

Lastly, what is the software behind which powers with Wiki? (ie. what is the database, and is it actually a PHP application, etc.?)
