Allowing acces to ports < 1024 w/o root

I need to set up an application to run in a script which will be running as a web server but is a database. I need to allow users to use the web server but the app must be run as root in order for the ports to be accessible. This is not a very secure environment would like to know how this could be solved.

I just need to know the basic commands and concept and I should be able to figure it out, hopefully!?!?

Thanks

Robert Pollard
