Re: [dubailug] Allow user to bind ports below 1024

[Sean Craig - Snr Solutions Consultant - enigmatis]

I think the OS controls access to these ports.   If you are trying to write an application, it may be usefull to look at the Apache code.  Apache starts up with root privileges to bind to port 80, then sheds the privileges before accepting connections. Why would you want users to use these ports?    Regards Sean cGull wrote: How do I allow a user to bind IP ports below 1024?. -- cGull   ||||||          www.cgullcharlie.com         (0 0 )\                /       \               / //      \_____///      / //|             /      \// |   |  \\===//          |   \  \\==//           \    \____//             \________/                ||  //             || //            ////// YAHOO!
