Write access for Nagat problem??

[Jamie Bohr]

Can Apache be ran as a real user such as apache?  

I not sure but user nobody should not be used to applications and may
even be restricted.  My user "nobody" has a shell of /sbin/nologin which
does not allow the user to login or even be su'ed to.  Is there a reason
why apache is running as "nobody"?
