Subject: [users@httpd] run apache as non-root user

hi

the way i usually do that is to compile and install
apache as root. Then, chown -R user:group apache2/

Is there a different method? (such as ./configure and
make and make install as non-root user??)

coz sometimes stop and start scripts do not work well
if run as normal user...

thanks
