[freeside] can't configure after installation.

[Randall Lucas]

Hi Rick,

I could be wrong but I don't think the Apache User and Group directives  
can be Virtual host-specific (they act on the actual running child  
processes of apache).  You need to have an actual separate instance of  
apache running.  See apache docs.  Don't run this on the same box as  
another apache, unless you set it to listen on a different port and use  
a different pid and scoreboard file etc.  Again -- see apache docs.

In other words, unless ps -auxwww | grep apache (or http) shows some  
apache children running as user freeside, you're not going to get  
anywhere.
