Can't actually remember if you can but either way it doesn't make a
difference as the log files overwrite themselves if they get full. Nothing
to worry about.

Yep.. First though you have to configure the router using its advanced
settings to set its internal webserver to listen to a different port. I
used 8080. Then you can set up port forwarding for port 80 to any internal
address using the NAT config page.(again in the advanced configuration).

I'm about 1200 miles from home at the moment so I can't check the exact
settings that I have on mine but the configuration pages are pretty
straight forward and simple.
