Run on some other (nonprivileged) port, then use firewall rules to
port-forward port 443 to the port it's running on.  There are
instructions for doing this with Tor at

https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/wiki/TheOnionRouter/TorFAQ#HowcanImakemyrelayaccessibletopeoplestuckbehindrestrictivefirewalls

; it should be easy to adapt them as needed.
