that's as intended. if there is important stuff missing in the man
page, please send a patch.

httpd doesn't do cgi, only static html. feel free to read the code to
find the implementation details.

no.

you are correct.

namespaces on the highest level might be a neat concept, but our
implementation sadly doesn't include an overall system security
concept.

sorry.

no, practically right now, just spawn another cpu server instead.
physical separation is safer than user or namespace separation.

i'd trust the fileserver's user separation a bit more, so that's the
only place where i'd share ressources.
