In error log I get messages "unable to change uid xxxx". In my httpd.conf I set user either as "jacek" (it's my account asnormal user) user-group is 1004:1007 or "nobody" (who is equal guest in my passwd file) user group is 501:513 but behaviour is the same. Being root(user administrator in NT meaninig) I have no problem in Cygwin terminal window to login as user "jacek" for example so it seems that uid switching works. I do not know if this is similar mechanism as in Apache but anyway what is solution ?
