[plug] Simple Web questions - Debian Linux

[Jeremy Malcolm]

1.    Is it bad for your root Web site to have the owner/group "root"?
2.    What owner/group should it be (what is the default for Debian)?
3.    If the answer to 2 is "nobody:nogroup", isn't that a security risk?
4.    Unless the answer is "www-data", why does Debian have "www-data"?
5.    If you have the source to an Apache module that you are supposed to
	compile into the server using "patch", can you convert it into a
	loadable .so module instead without having to recompile httpd?

Thanks.
