Embedded http server problem with port 80

Question

Hello Guys/Gals,
I have just installed the latest version of Oracle XE and APEX on redhat linux. I am trying to get rid of the 8080 port in my url. So I am trying to change my port to 80. I logged into pl/sql as system - exec dbms_xdb.sethttpport('80'); that seems to run fine. If I look at my lsnrctl status - I do not see the line for it listening on port 80 like it does when it's set to port 8080? I changed the owner of lsnrctl to root? I read that in an article to set port < 1024? Can someone please help me out. I am sure it's a permission thing but I can't figure it out. By the way everything works fine when the port is set to 8080 but???
Thanks,
Dan

Update I belive I got it to work. Here is what I think I did to make it work.
chown root:root $ORACLE_HOME/bin/tnslsnr
chmod 4755 tnslsnr
I logged into sqlplus as system -
exec dbms_xdb.sethttpport('80');
Then added the following line to the $ORACLE_HOME/network/admin/listener.ora LISTENER section
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = dpmsurf)(PORT = 80))
(PROTOCOL_STACK = (PRESENTATION = HTTP) (SESSION = RAW))
the stopped and started the listner
$ORACLE_HOME/bin/lsnrctl stop
$ORACLE_HOME/bin/lsnrctl start
Now I can run with out putting the port in the url .
Thanks,
