phpgw runs as apache.
more specificaly, unless you setup php as CGI, php runs INSIDE of
apache, as a loadable module. the 2 are generaly not seperated. and,
how would this differ from a ftp-vfs backendm using the email login
data to auth to ftp? ftp would sertainly be easier to implement than
building a new protocol and daemon. also would able webdav? can
per-user auth be added to that?

/setup/ step2, set the path to soemthing not /home (but stil loutside
the web root). if it is set to /home, it going to try to take over
the users home dirs, which it hopefull won't have permission to do.

this is for being able to set the POSIX home dir from the phpgw
account management. not really realted at all.
