https port 443 hpux 11i v2

[sheevm]

Hi All,

We have an issue. The application we are running require to listen on port 80 and port 443 (https). Outside client connects via https connection and transfers the file. webmethods application running in the Unix server listening on port 443.

In order to open up these ports, we have set the permission on the application start up scripts for the following:

rwsr-s-- root wmadmin server.sh

"webm" application user belongs to wmadmin group.
webm user executes the server.sh script to bring up the application processes.

the application processes are owned by webm.

Our assumption at this point is although processes are owned by webm, It has the root privilages to open up port 80 and 443. Becuase SUID bit set on server.sh.

We are having an issue with 443. When client connects via https, file does not come in. Client gets "connection timeout" error

No firewall issue. We see in Unix netstat command 443 is open.

Anyone out there have some debuuging steps at Unix level?

Is the SUID bit setting give full root permission to other users?

Any problems you see with this configuration?

I hope my question is clear.
