+ <p>The <code class="directive">Group</code> directive sets the group under

+ <p>The <code class="directive">User</code> directive sets the user ID as
+ which the server will answer requests. In order to use this
+ directive, the server must be run initially as <code>root</code>.
+ If you start the server as a non-root user, it will fail to change
+ to the lesser privileged user, and will instead continue to run as
+ that original user. If you do start the server as <code>root</code>,
+ then it is normal for the parent process to remain running as root.
+ <var>Unix-userid</var> is one of:</p>
+
+ <dl>
+ <dt>A username</dt>
+ <dd>Refers to the given user by name.</dd>
+
+ <dt># followed by a user number.</dt>
+ <dd>Refers to a user by its number.</dd>
+ </dl>
+
+ <p>The user should have no privileges that result in it being
+ able to access files that are not intended to be visible to the
+ outside world, and similarly, the user should not be able to
+ execute code that is not meant for HTTP requests. It is
+ recommended that you set up a new user and group specifically for
+ running the server. Some admins use user <code>nobody</code>, but
+ this is not always desirable, since the <code>nobody</code> user
+ can have other uses on the system.</p>
