Re: Access to ports < 1024 w/o root

Thanks for the reply!

I didn't think the OS mattered and that's why I didn't mention it. I thought there was a general "Unix" way of doing this. But, if it will help, the OS is OS X (BSD implementation). I have become quite disappointed in Apple in the last few days as I am discovering they have drastically changed the Unix core to a more proprietary OS than most Unix distributions I have worked with.
