Running Listen

[Chuck Hast <wchast@gmail.com>]

Folks,
I am trying to run listen as a non-root user. I have checked the permissions
and group stuff, all appears Ok, it I run it as root, it takes off just fine,
but if I run it as a non-root user I get this error:
socket: Operation not permitted

I have done some looking and see something to the effect that tcpdump
must be run as root or you get the same error, is this true of listen also?

Indeed I wanted to set up listen so I could have a log in directly to a listen
session so I could just log in remotely and observe the goings on's on the
different ports of the switch. (Has high speed internet connection so there
is not problem there) Again I can ssh into the box as root and start a listen
session just fine, but as anything else I get the above infamous error.
