// you will need working SSL key and cert, otherwise:
// openssl genrsa -out privatekey.pem 1024 
// openssl req -new -key privatekey.pem -out certrequest.csr 
// openssl x509 -req -in certrequest.csr -signkey privatekey.pem -out certificate.pem
//
// map port 8443 to 443 and 8080 to 80; see gist 776580 to do this on EC2

The Problem

Standard practices say no non-root process gets to talk to the Internet on a port less than 1024. How, then, could I get Node talking on port 80 on EC2? (I wanted it to go as fast as possible and use the smallest possible share of my teeny tiny little micro-instance's resources, so proxying through nginx or Apache seemed suboptimal.)

The temptingly easy but ultimately wrong solution:

Alter the port the script talks to from 8000 to 80:

}).listen(80);
