Rails - Oct 2005 - Setting the user for FastCGI processes?

I''d like to run the FastCGI as a different user than the Apache2 server
(www-data on Debian). I take it this is possible in some way with 
suExec2, but so far I haven''t figured out how to do it.

Well, I''ve figured it out partially.

<IfModule mod_fastcgi.c>
  FastCgiWrapper /usr/lib/apache2/suexec2
  FastCgiServer /var/www/myapp/dispatch.fcgi \
    -initial-env RAILS_ENV=production \
    -processes 5 -idle-timeout 60 \
    -user myuser -group mygroup
</IfModule>

It still doesn''t work because I have my app symlinked into the document
root and suexec complains about the dispatch.fcgi being outside of the 
document root. Is it possible to reconcile these two?

In fact, they do.
