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.

Re: non-root on 80

2005-04-04 Thread John Lianogou
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.

Hope that helps,

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?

Thanks,
Jeff Duska

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