This program has too much security and it won't run in my setup. Basically - I want to get rid of the userdir feature so suexec can run cgi scripts anywhere and not just below the users home directory. I want it to stop checking the home directory completely.

And please - do lecture me about security. I choose to be insecure. How do I make this work?

Also need to get rid of the "cannot get docroot information".

I just want to run as a different user in virtual hosts without all the ******** security.

What I'm trying to do is use suexec to become the same user as the user that owns the virtual domain. That way I can use more restrictive permissions because the user is the right user. When apache runs a program that creates files owned by apache.
