Typically user processes are not allowed to open ports on a *nix system. Look at the menu entry for Monkey webserver in DSL. It is started with sudo, yet the process is turned over to user 'nobody'.

Look at the conf file abyss and there you will see a section for starting on a *nix system as root then running as 'nobody'.
