Unable to access websites ports already in use error message

I have a Windows 2003 server with IIS installed. I have configured two different websites, one for 'windows authentication' and naother one for Anonymous access. When i try to start website with 'Windows Authentication' I am able to start the site, but when i try to start Anonymous site, it says message Port is already in use. Either i tried starting Anonymous site, i was able to, but when i tried to start Windows authentication site, it says the same error message. All the configuration are as per standard and i have two different ip's for sites. Both are SSL enabled.
