Help on Varnish configuration problem on Centos 6.5

Varnish is not running. When it doesn't start you can check syslog. It will
probably say something like "can't bind to port".

The reason is obvious (for me at least :-).

tcp        0      0 0.0.0.0:80 <http://0.0.0.0/>
0.0.0.0:*
LISTEN      7866/httpd

You have apache running on port 80 so Varnish can't bind to the port.
