How do I run JBoss or Tomcat on port 80 or 443?

Issue

• Can we run JBoss as a non-root user, but still use port 80?
• How is tomcat configured to run as a non-root user on port 80?
• We would like to be able to access our application by https://www.mydomain.example.com rather than having to specify https://www.mydomain.example.com:8443

• Able to deploy JBoss successfully when run as a root user but getting the following Exception when run as a normal user:

  java.net.BindException: Permission denied
  

• How to use port 80 for http instead of 8080 without apache. We tried changing <socket-binding name="http" port="8080"/> to <socket-binding name="http" port="80"/> in standalone.xml, does not work ?

• How to make a JBoss EAP 6.2.4 installed and running under Windows 2008 R2 to use port 80 instead of 8080 and 443 instead of 8443 in JBoss. Is there any concern ?
