Description

Adds the Apache MPM ITK module, which can run each virtual host under a separate user and group. This helps isolate sites on shared web servers so one site's file permissions do not automatically match another's.

Use it only when administering Apache virtual hosts and Unix permissions. It is loaded by Apache, not launched directly, and wrong user or group settings can break sites or weaken isolation.
