I'm trying to get my ServerSocket to listen on port 80 on Mac OS X. But the problem is, Unix systems require root privileges for all processes listening on all ports below 1024.

I've searched the archives, and found some hints, but not enough detail for me to succeed at this yet. So far:

1. Use Authentication Services to authenticate my app (which I understand to mean, give it an effective user ID of root). Jon Johnson has a nifty example of declares to authentication services, but it executes a helper tool, which isn't what I need to do. (It also does some unexplained fiddling with file flags that I don't understand.)

MBS' plugin does the trick.
