Compile error on http-server example

[schilton]

I am trying to compile the http-server example and it fails to establish a listener on port 80. I have tried both suggested configuration statements with the same results and I have confirmed that port 80 is open in the firewall as you can see below. Does anyone have any suggestions on what to try next?

@schilton port 80 is a privileged port, you need to be root to open it. Either become root, or use ports > 1024.
