Answer 1

I have installed Jenkins on my Mac OS High Sierra using Brew.

Please follow below steps:

1. You have to change the port to below file:

   /usr/local/Cellar/jenkins/2.x.x/homebrew.mxcl.jenkins.plist

2. Assign any free port like 7070 or any number you want.[If you have static IP then you can give port 80(HTTP)]

   --httpPort=7070

3. You also need to restart the Jenkins Server. using below brew service commands:

   $ brew services stop jenkins

   $ brew services start jenkins

That's all.!
