Okay, I start abyss in the console, but my system wont allow abyss to use port 80.

I logged in as root, and it works fine. But i don't want abyss to be running under the root-account. Is there any way to allow port 80 from my regular account?

Code:

cmx@3[abyssws]$ su
Password:
root@3[abyssws]# '/home/cmx/Desktop/abyssws/abyssws'
Abyss Web Server X1 (v 2.0.0.20)

-- Default host on port 80 is up and running (Local URL http://127.0.0.1)

Console local URL: http://127.0.0.1:9999

ive just got this working...

first untar the file to where you want it installed as the unprivaliged user.

then "su" to root and run abyss to create the config file.

Execute:
Code:
chown root abyssws


then:
Code:
chmod +Xs abyssws


return to the normal user (usually "exit")

and start abyss
Code:
/home/cmx/Desktop/abyssws/abyssws


hopefully that should work
