Answer 1

In *nix In CentOS/RedHat

vim /etc/sysconfig/jenkins

# Port Jenkins is listening on.
# Set to -1 to disable
#
JENKINS_PORT="8080"

In windows open XML file C:\Program Files (x86)\Jenkins\jenkins.xml

%BASE%\jre\bin\java
  -Xrs -Xmx256m -Dhudson.lifecycle=hudson.lifecycle.WindowsServiceLifecycle -jar "%BASE%\jenkins.war" --**httpPort=8083**
 i made  above bold  to show you change then 
 %BASE%\jre\bin\java
  -Xrs -Xmx256m -Dhudson.lifecycle=hudson.lifecycle.WindowsServiceLifecycle -jar "%BASE%\jenkins.war" --httpPort=8083

now you have to restart it doesnot work unless you restart http://localhost:8080/restart then after restart http://localhost:8083/ all should be well so looks like the all above response which says it does not work We have restart.
