I'm setting up my HTTP server and I'm not sure who should own my html

root, /var/www/html.  Currently they are owned by root:root.

What about cgi script files in /var/www/cgi-bin?  I wouldn't think
you would want them owned by root?

Thanks,

You don't want any of those files owned by root. Ideally, they should
be owned by the user who will be editing them. Otherwise, you can let
them be owned by apache (or whatever your httpd is running as)
