Hi,

In the past I have been able to run tomcat on port 80 under a "tomcat" user. It seems like the latest versions of Fedora require that tomcat either be run as root or requests to 8080 have to be redirected using iptables. Can anyone confirm this?

What you probably mean is that the Fedora repackaged distribution of Tomcat installs it that way by default, no ?
Tomcat itself does not require that.
So, before someone else here tells you to install a genuine official Tomcat from the Tomcat website, have you checked on the Fedora support list ? Otherwise, it should be quite simple to change the port by modifying the corresponding <Connector> tag in Tomcat's server.xml.
But then of course you might have to fight with SE-Linux and such things.
For which you may need the Fedora support list anyway, so why not start there ?
