No quite what I meant. I mean, the apache daemon can be running as
apache and the requests to certain Hosts, Locations and Directories
can be run as bob, neil or steve, locally.

And i would find this out how ??? couldn't i just make the files world
readable ?
to find out which user apache is running as you can use
ps aux | grep apache

as you can see - the apache listening processes are run by the user
'www-data' on my debian machine. if the files have the standard
rw-r--r-- permissions that should be fine. (this means they are
readable by any user on your system.
i think on slackware the user is 'nobody' and on RH it is something else
again.
