If you want to run anything below port 1024 (it's 80 port for web server), you need to run it as sudo, that's why your password is required.

Not really get it. Could you be more precise, cyanpunk?

Any UNIX system process that runs below/or 1024 port requires sudo to do any change on that process (e.g. start/stop).

Anvil uses pow web-server which runs on port 80. So, to turn it on/off requires sudo, that's why it asks for your password. You can change it only by setting pow to run any port above 1024. And it will require to specify port number in your URL to access the page.

Example.
If pow runs on 3000 port, then accessible URL would be http://*.dev:3000/

@zulhfreelancer I just recently update Anvil to no longer require asking for a username/password when toggling on/off. See Pull Request (#14)
