I am working on a custom device running Android that needs to support

a working SSH implementation, but we can't run it on port 22 right
now. Is there a way to do so using system level APIs, or will I need
to get root/create my own something in the framework?
I'm not 100% sure this applies to Android, but onsome [or all] Linux
distributions, applications trying to bind on ports below 1024 (or so)
usually require elevated privileges, such as being run by root or one of
the "system" users. It's possible that this is a requirement on Android
as well, since it's based on Linux. As a test, try binding to a port
above 1024 and see if it works.
