some time ago there was a nice tip from a guy on this list:
Linux kernel configuration:
Networking options --->
[*] IP: firewalling
[*] IP: transparent proxy support
and then a small startup-script:
[...]
start)
echo -n "Redirect port 80"
/sbin/ipchains -A input -p tcp -s 0/0 -d 0/0 80 -j REDIRECT 8000
this should also work (https):
/sbin/ipchains -A input -p tcp -s 0/0 -d 0/0 443 -j REDIRECT 8443
[...]
then you can run orion as any user you want.
hope that helps
