[Xitami] Xitami under Mandrake

[Control-Freak]

Yep, that was the problem.  It won't run on any port <1024 unless I am
logged on as root.  It works fine on anything higher than that.  Does anyone
know how to get around this?

I am impressed!  It dishes out files pretty damn fast.  Its only using a AMD
PR133 processor!  Its almost as fast as my AMD Athelon 1400 server.  Check
it out.  I put a reasonably graphics intensive page on there.

I got a AMD K6-2 366 (as fast as the MB will go) on ebay for it for $10 on
Ebay that I should get tomorrow.

Thanks again,

- Jay
