Hi Zarrir,
have a look at your /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf
Right a the beginning you'll find a section like this one:
# User/Group: The name (or #number) of the user/group to run httpd as.
# On SCO (ODT 3) use User nouser and Group nogroup
# On HPUX you may not be able to use shared memory as nobody, and the
# suggested workaround is to create a user www and use that user.
# NOTE that some kernels refuse to setgid(Group) or semctl(IPC_SET)
# when the value of (unsigned)Group is above 60000;
# don't use Group nobody on these systems!
User httpd
Group httpd
Best regards,
Hendrik.
