I saw that only talk and ntalk are started as user nobody.tty, the rest of services are started as root. The parent process which started "nobody" processes are started by user root from inetd command. These processes have command httpd - where is the connection ?

I don't think that Apache can even work this way. Anyway, "big" servers, like Sendmail, Apache, Cyrus IMAP (since 2.0) will run as standalone daemons, not from InetD. Take a look at your /etc/inetd.conf and see what servers are run from it as user "nobody" and you'll be one step closer to finding your problem source.
