    <p>The <code class="directive">SuexecUserGroup</code> directive allows you
    to specify a user and group for CGI programs to run as. Non-CGI
    requests are still processes with the user specified in the User
    directive. This directive replaces the Apache 1.3 configuration of
    using the User and Group directives inside of VirtualHosts.</p>
