[Red5] sudo red5 problem

[Timon Reinhard]

I was wrong, quite sure sudo dropped your $JAVA_HOME (an java 1.4 seems 
to be in your path). You can configure /etc/sudoers to keep certain 
environment variables after sudo.

(Why don't you simply start the server via an init script on system boot?)

Regards,
Timon
