<H2>Summary</H2>
<p>This module creates and controls processes and threads in a manner
identical to <a href="dexter.html">dexter</a>. However, it adds
the extra ability to specify that specific processes should serve
requests under different userids. These processes can then be
associated with specific virtual hosts.</p>
