 I don't know what you are trying to solve.
 
 If PHP runs under user www (Apache), it can still read the content of 
 the directory.
 If you want to disallow access to sessions of different domains 
 (VirtualHosts), you can do it by using different session.save_path for 
 each domain.
 
 In context of VirtualHost for www.domain1.tld:
      php_admin_value    session.save_path    /web/www.domain1.tld/tmp
 
 
 In context of VirtualHost for www.domain2.tld:
      php_admin_value    session.save_path    /web/www.domain2.tld/tmp
