Changing the port on Zenoss email links

So I've set up zenoss for sending emails on a few alert conditions, using the standard alert template. Its sending the alerts just fine, but the links for Acknowledge, Event Detail, Delete, etc, all have the wrong link.

They all point to http://myServer:8080

My Zenoss installation however, is located at http://myServer:8888 (already had other services running on 8080).

So..simple question, how do I change the port the email sends out when it uses the variables like "eventUrl"?

Thanks a bunch

    You're looking for the "zopeurl" option to the zenactions daemon. Edit
    $ZENHOME/etc/zenactions.conf and add a line like the following. Then
    restart zenactions

    zopeurl http://your.server:8080

    This questions comes up so frequently that I've created a ticket to
    have this option be configurable from the standard settings page in
    the web interface.

    Working
    We are setting Zenoss up for the first time, and this post helped a lot

    FYI: I don't know about your ticket, but here's our success story
    running 2.2.4

    initially edited value via command line
    later we got rid of the port in our URL
    I opened zactions through the Daemons tab and found I could edit the zopeurl value there
    restarted zenactions and all was golden

    granted it might be easier for a Newbie user if there was a labeled field somewhere, or a preentered null value for zopeurl in zenactions they could replace, but this post fix our problem

    Thanks
