I would look at something like authbind, which can be found as a Debian package here:
http://packages.debian.org/unstable/utils/authbind.html Also on Linux is the daemon() function used in some startup scripts, found in /etc/init.d/functions, but I don't know how well either of those would port to HP-UX. I saw a discussion on tomcat-dev that talked about using Tomcat with chroot, but it looked pretty involved.
