HI I am trying to run a webservice on port 9999

The webservice runs perfectly, via http://etc.service.asmx/
I see the webservice and am able to run it nicely,

the problem comes in on adding the webservice in vs 2008 , it is unable to correctly attach the web service
this is the log of the error that vs2008 produces

Metadata contains a reference that cannot be resolved: 'http://vs2008.org/email-catcher/service.asmx?wsdl'.
There was an error downloading 'http://vs2008.org/email-catcher/service.asmx?wsdl'.
Unable to connect to the remote server
A connection attempt failed because the connected party did not properly respond after a period of time, or established connection failed because connected host has failed to respond 162.122.148.120:80
Metadata contains a reference that cannot be resolved: 'http://vs2008.org:9999/email-catcher/service.asmx'.
Metadata contains a reference that cannot be resolved: 'http://vs2008.org:9999/email-catcher/service.asmx'.
If the service is defined in the current solution, try building the solution and adding the service reference again.

The question is like this am I able to attach the web service to the port or am I forced to use a common scanned port 80 ?

thanks
