Hi, Sometimes we need to bind node apps to port 80. Some apps(tools) does not implement proper stepdown mechanism via *process.setuid*.
In these cases, we need use port forwarding or some other work around. *Enter UserDown* *userdown *takes care of this issue and it can stepdown any Node app. See usage. userdown USERDOWN_UID=nobody USERDOWN_GID=nobody examples/port80server.js See for more Info: UserDown on GitHub<https://github.com/arunoda/node-userdown> Hope this helps. -- Arunoda Susiripala @arunoda <http://twitter.com/arunoda> <http://gplus.to/arunoda>https://github.com/arunoda http://www.linkedin.com/in/arunoda -- -- Job Board: http://jobs.nodejs.org/ Posting guidelines: https://github.com/joyent/node/wiki/Mailing-List-Posting-Guidelines You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "nodejs" group.
