Hi Justin, this sounds like you tried to bind an input to a privileged port (1-1024), which only the superuser (root) is allowed to.
You can either change the port of the input to a high port (anything above 1024, e. g. 5514 instead of 514) or use a tool like authbind to allow the JVM to bind privileged ports.
