*chown executed by the apache user*


Hello Mod_Perl List


I need to change the uid, 'chown' for a file via the apache-perl
process.

People can work via FTP/WebDAV on files, but also via a Web Interface.
For the web I have basic authentication, and of course when touching a
file, it has the uid of the Apache process. As I use the FS to keep
owner information, that's not what I want!

Afaik I can only 'chown' while being root. An to become root (what I
wouldn't like, but would do if it would solve the problem) again I
would need to be root. An of course I will never let the Apache
running as root.

How would you solve that problem?

mod_perl 1.0, Apache 1.x
