Re: www user
Most web administrators would create a user calle www this is where they will create the web root.
In Apache this will be in the httpd.conf file
varuable is DocumentRoot and you will find it will point to this www directory

Re: www user
www is a userid which comes as default with the O/S install. With web becoming a standard, this id was added in the default userlist of the O/S.
The userid''s which are installed as a part of O/S install are:
#/usr/newconfig/etc>more passwd
root::0:3::/:/sbin/sh
daemon:*:1:5::/:/sbin/sh
bin:*:2:2::/usr/bin:/sbin/sh
sys:*:3:3::/:
adm:*:4:4::/var/adm:/sbin/sh
uucp:*:5:3::/var/spool/uucppublic:/usr/lbin/uucp/uucico
lp:*:9:7::/var/spool/lp:/sbin/sh
nuucp:*:11:11::/var/spool/uucppublic:/usr/lbin/uucp/uucico
hpdb:*:27:1:ALLBASE:/:/sbin/sh
nobody:*:-2:-2::/:
www:*:30:1::/:
And as you see with this find command output below, there are no files owned by www.
It's just the userid which can be used after a http server installation.
#:/usr/newconfig/etc>find / -user www
#:/usr/newconfig/etc>

Re: www user
1) execute any program with the world x bit set
2) modify any file with the world w bit set
3) add/delete files in any directory with the world w bit set
(2 and 3 shouldn't happen on a well configured host).
My .02, I'd replace that 30 with something higher, so you can make rules based on uid and gid:
e.g.
anything < 100 is priv'd.
anything over 59000 is unpriv'd
Thus a find stuff with uid > 59000 tells you everywhere a unpriv'd user owns files (shouldn't be anywhere).
Or, some of our setuid programs check uid - anything less than 100 isn't allowed to setuid.
