Also as other's have pointed out in #197 HTTP_PORT added to config_hash just adds to config doesn't update JENKINS_PORT... that actually needs to be replaced.

So contrary to what's documented, you were actually on the right track with the config hash as a workaround. If you specify the JENKINS_PORT this will actually work. I use hiera, so it'd look like this

---
jenkins::config_hash:
  JENKINS_PORT:
    value: 6589

A few things to add to this bug:

1. The documentation doesn't clearly point out that ports such as 80/443 are privileged ports and will not work (some sort of proxy is required to route incoming port 80 traffic to jenkins to this modules default of 8080)

2. The documentation points the user to enter HTTP_PORT in the config_hash to configure the port however the actual parameter required is JENKINS_PORT (At least tested on EL6).

3. The jenkins::port parameter in init.pp is defined but never used in the manifest so this is just a configuration black hole

oddly it is only used in the firewall config but only does HTTP port. So what happens if you specify HTTP and HTTPS.

Also I noticed the plugin syntax says it works but when I open Jenkins site they aren't installed. Anyone else?
