[Wrapper-user] Using JSW To Run a Java Server on a Privileged Port?

[Jason B. <jas...@gm...>]

Hi JSW developers.

I couldn't find info on your web pages / docs about whether JSW implements =
this
feature, so I'm guessing it doesn't -- the ability to run a Java
program as a non-root
user and open privileged server ports.  For example, run Tomcat through JSW=
 as
user "tomcat" and still open web server port 80.

The Apache Jakarta Commons Daemon jsvc binary that comes with Tomcat does
this, but has fewer other features:

http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/daemon/jsvc.html

JSW doesn't do it as far as I can see, but has lots of nice service
features that
Tomcat users could make use of -- but most will want the port 80 capability=
.

Have you considered adding this feature already?  I searched this mailing l=
ist
archive and did not see it discussed.

Cheers.
