Port 80 is one of Unix's special ports. All ports numbered

below 1024 are reserved for system use, <EM>i.e.</EM>, regular (non-root) users cannot

make use of them; instead they can only use higher port numbers.

To use port 80, you must start the server from the root account.

After binding to the port and before accepting requests, Apache will change

to a low privileged user as set by the <A HREF="#user">User directive</A>.<P>
