Today I downloaded Abyss to use on my Linux-system. The thing is that my system wont let Abyss use port 80, unless I run it as the root-user, which I really don't want to because of the security-risk. Is there any way to allow Abyss to run under my regular user?

Code:

root@Debian:/home/cmx # '/home/cmx/Desktop/abyssws/abyssws'
Abyss Web Server X1 (v 2.0.6)
Copyright (C) Aprelium Technologies - 2001-2005


-- 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

Signal #2 received. Shutting down the server...
root@Debian:/home/cmx # exit
exit
cmx@Debian:~$ '/home/cmx/Desktop/abyssws/abyssws'
Abyss Web Server X1 (v 2.0.6)

-- Default host on port 80 has a listening problem (Local URL http://127.0.0.1)

Console local URL: http://127.0.0.1:9999
