Very Computer

When browsing to servername/~user/  I get "You are not authorized to view
this page".
My /etc/skel includes the public_html dir, and I have tried adding a

<Directory  /home/*/public_html>
   AllowOverride None
   order deny,allow
   allow from all
</Directory>

in access.conf.
I have already checked that the public_html dir under each user has the 755
access rights.
When enabling 755 access rights to the user dir itself, everything is fine
and the homepages are shown.
I'm running RedHat 5.2.

Help would be much appreciated!!!!!

I think I see your problem --

Oops... I just read more carefully -- you already figured that out.  This is
annoying.  I don't like to make my user directory world-readable either ;-).

So, create a directory like /usr/web/ and make a subdirectory for each user
there, and set up the conf file accordingly.  Make sure the /usr/web directory
is 755 too ;-).

Good luck!

Is "mod_userdir" loaded? That could be the case.

HTH,

Now the problem is making a "post user creation schript". It should set 705
access to the userdir after creation of a new user for automation.

I try, by copying the accountarchive.sh file userconf uses, and changing
this to
include a line like "chmod 705 $BASE/&USERID"
It doesent help. Can you help me out on this one also?
