How do you relay HTTP Port 80 Connections to Tomcat Port 8080?

I am working with a CentOS VPS and would like to achieve this without running tomcat as root.

• Hi,

  you have two options:

  • Put an apache or other webserver in front of the tomcat server and pass the requests to the tomcat. This post shows how.
  • Using iptables redirects.

  Nearly the same question is discussed here
