How can the executing user for PHP scripts be changed in Apache settings?

To change the executing user for PHP scripts in Apache settings, you can modify the Apache configuration file (httpd.conf) to use the suEXEC feature. This allows you to specify a different user to execute PHP scripts, providing better security and control over file permissions. ```apache <IfModule mod_suexec.c> SuexecUserGroup yourusername yourusername </IfModule> ```
