I have now requested and received an IP (so I can use the server via
HTTPS), but I am having difficulty getting the server to run.

In the httpd.conf of my instance of Apache, I have
  Listen 69.90.123.84:443

When attempting to run my httpd, I get an error like:
  (13)Permission denied: make_sock: could not bind to address 69.90.123.84:443

The same error happens if I try port 80.

Do I need to do something in addition to requesting the IP in order to
be able to bind to it?

Thanks,
