In Solaris 9 and before it is not possible to achieve this other than by running applications as root.
In Solaris 10, you can give users the net_privaddr privilege which allows them to bind to privilege ports.
Of course, this means that no part of the infrastructure should depend on reserved port based "authentication".
(I.e., no .rhosts file authentication; no "auth_sys" NFS, etc.)

Just one question, by giving the net_privaddr privilege you allow all low ports to the specific user, or is there a way to assign a set of ports only?
