Re: non-root on 80
Just configure your Tomcat to use port 80 in the Connector element of your server.xml and then use jsvc to start it. --David NetSQL wrote: I read that it has a stop method... but how do I get it to run at port 80 ? .V David Smith wrote: Look at jsvc in the commons-daemon project on jakarta.apache.org/commons --David NetSQL wrote: apache drops to non root after bind to 80.

Re: non-root on 80
I had to set up a solution using IP tables on my redhat box. First some background as to why I solved it this way: You can't run anything directly on port 80 without that process being executed as the root user... which -- for a variety of reasons I'm sure you needn't hear me go into -- is a Really Bad Idea. ;-) What you want to do in this case is to reroute port 80 traffic to a port that tomcat can bind to when executed as a normal user. Here's what I did to accomplish this (hopefully you've got iptables on your box, as well... tho the path of this script may be different on yr system... so check into both matters if this doesn't work for you): /sbin/iptables -t nat -I PREROUTING -p tcp --dport 80 -j REDIRECT --to-port 8080 You'll need root permissions to do this, tho.

Re: non-root on 80
I'm using the jsvc in the commons-daemon with a Tomcat user. Other than not having to deal with the jsvc, is there a reason to pick this over jsvc?

RE: non-root on 80
In Linux, the workaround is to run on port 8080, and then write an IPTables rule to forward port 80 to 8080.
