Does anyone know how to listen to to say, 514 UDP, without being root? I'm working with splunk and would prefer to keep it running contained within it's own user:group. The Goog affords this, http://stackoverflow.com/questions/413807/is-there-a-way-for-non-root-processes-to-bind-to-privileged-ports-1024-on-l, is it the most efficient way to go about this? Worst case scenario I would use iptables to redirect, but would prefer to leave syslog on it's standard port.
