Hi,
How does one run CouchDB on port 80 without changing the COUCHDB_USER to root?
FYI, I'm running Ubuntu 9.10.
Cheers,
Zach
You don't.
But you can proxy backwards from a HTTP daemon running on port 80.
See the wiki for reverse proxy configurations.

Technically you can - you can start with root privileges to bind to
port 80 and drop them to _couchdb but its a bit too complicated.
Zachary, its more convinient to use some frontend - nginx, lighttpd or
what ever.
there's also authbind.
