(jboss-3.2.4RC1 + j2sdk-1_4_2_04-linux-i586)

i can execute run.sh ([webuser@test bin]$ ./run.sh) normally with normal user by using 8080 port. when i
edit config files([root@test deploy]# vi jbossweb-tomcat50.sar/server.xml), change port 8080 to 80, and then execute run.sh, but it got errors. Following is the error messages:

at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:534)
20:50:16,421 ERROR [Catalina] Catalina.start:
LifecycleException: Protocol handler start failed: java.net.BindException: Permission denied:80
at org.apache.coyote.tomcat5.CoyoteConnector.start(CoyoteConnector.java:1547)

so ,how can i config the proper privilege and make the process of normal user can use the port 80 ?

You need to run as root to bind to anything below port 1024.
