Hmm, ok but what's about the apache webserver? It runs on port 80 and as a own "apache" user.
Is running on lowports generally restricted for non root users?
I can startup a seversocket on lowports running as a nonroot user...

thanks for advice / ideas


the apache daemon is started by root, it binds the port 80 and then it fork to the unpriviledged user apache.

This cannot be done in java.

You can install a tunnelling tool as root and let it forward the port 25 to 4025 or something similar.
