It's not possible to run node servers on port 80. Generally you run your node server on a port > 1024, then find some way to forward traffic from 80 to your real port. Services like nodejitsu handle this automatically by using internal plumbing to get the server ultimately listening on 80. Appfog gives you a specfic port as an environment variable. In EC2 you can set up IPTABLES forwards.
