#3: --with-mpm=perchild3. If you have different sites (presumably owned by different people) on your server, all the backend servers can execute with different userids so that the backend server of one site doesn't have to be able to read the files of another site. And, everyone can change their own server configuration.We know that Apache 2 confers benefit #1 without needing a separate frontend and backend. Benefit #2 seems to be planned, but isn't here yet. ...What about benefit #3?
which is a work in progress
http://httpd.apache.org/docs-2.0/mod/perchild.html
notice the new AssignUserID and ChildPerUserID directives which now can set different uid/gid for each group of processes/threads.
