Can you elaborate on what is going on there?
What trolls?
I don’t know what that means.

Better still, unsubscribe them :)

Just a reminder to everyone that the list does have moderators and we can be
reached directly at users-owner@... should you need our help.

I have unsubscribed this particular user.

Hello,

Has anyone set up tomcat as a non-root use?

I have set it up successfully however, I have to bound the non-root
user to port 8443.

What is the best way to reroute 8443 through 443?
There are several options.
Everything is set up at send to port 443 so I need to reroute 8443 in
and out of 443

CentOS 7 by the way -
"what is the best (TM)?"
-> "It depends"

Tomcat runs well on unprivileged ports, and depending on your OS,
familiarity with configuring it, other infrastructure etc, you have
different options. Are you familiar with them - as you mention that
there are many?

You can
* use iptables redirection,
* have a proxy/webserver/loadbalancer in front,
* enable unprivileged binding to the port

I default to the second option, because there's an Apache httpd or
another loadbalancer anyways, and it tended to be best documented with
regards to all of the specific SSL settings you might want to have
(the cipher-cocktail of the day), plus easily get LetsEncrypt certs.

The others are valid as well - none is better, they're just different.

As we were discussing documentation in another thread these days: I've
expected to find a solution to your question in the FAQ and wanted to
link to it - but didn't find any entry there. There's a patch to go on
my list, with no ETA though. Maybe a side-task during that Manchester
Tomcat training.

Olaf
