[CLUE-Tech] Apache on Debian

[Timothy C. Klein]

This is from the file /usr/share/doc/apache/README.Debian

"* The default webpages are owned by root.root by default (*not*
  www-data.www-data), so hackers will have a harder time defacing the
  site."

You can set up your own groups there, though, if you would like, or
there is a www-data user.
