Apache serving static content with the uid of the owner of the file with mpm-prefork

Hi list,
i'm using a mpm-prefork with a lot of virtualhosts created, splited
between 200-500 different uids (different users), i need some way to
make Apache change its uid to the user to send that static content to
the client that requested that file.
I saw that mpm-itk can do what i want, but i can't change to
another mpm type, just studied a little about apache module development
, dunno if its possible to solve this in the module level.
Anyone had the same problem ? There is some way to make this
behaviour on mpm-prefork ?


Thanks in Advance !

Write a fcgi script to serve the files and use suexec to switch the user
ids.
