Do they? Those two URLs refer to different services (ports) on the same
IP.. It's obviously the same IP, but is it the same server?

Yes, it's quite common that the same content is available via both and
that both services is under the same administrative realm or even same
server software instance, but not guaranteed by any means.

Would you also consider http://www.example.com/ and
http://www.example.com:8080/ as the same server?  I don't..  For me the
server is identified by scheme://host:port  (or just host:port, wich
scheme just telling what protocol is run on that port)
