I am running apache2 with Ubuntu so that I can practice writing CGI/SQL
scripts with perl.
In ports.conf I have:
NameVirtualHost *:80
Listen 127.0.0.1:80
the intention being to limit access only to my laptop (keep the outside
world out).
I read several times "don't run apache as root".
ps -ef gives me the following:
root 1448 1 0 Apr11 ? 00:00:04
/usr/sbin/apache2 -k start
www-data 1712 1448 0 Apr11 ? 00:00:00 /usr/sbin/apache2 -k start
www-data 1713 1448 0 Apr11 ? 00:00:00 /usr/sbin/apache2 -k start
www-data 1714 1448 0 Apr11 ? 00:00:00 /usr/sbin/apache2 -k start
www-data 1715 1448 0 Apr11 ? 00:00:00 /usr/sbin/apache2 -k start
www-data 1716 1448 0 Apr11 ? 00:00:00 /usr/sbin/apache2 -k start
www-data 7304 1448 0 11:14 ? 00:00:00 /usr/sbin/apache2 -k start
www-data 7305 1448 0 11:14 ? 00:00:00 /usr/sbin/apache2 -k start
www-data 7306 1448 0 11:14 ? 00:00:00 /usr/sbin/apache2 -k start
My question is - what is that root process? Should I ignore it?
Thanks,
Walt
