Very Computer

I'm kinda stressed up.
All day long I have tried to give my Users their own public_html directory
using "UserDir" in the srm.conf file. The problem is, I constantly get a
permission denied or 403 error in my browser when I want to acces a
www.domain.com/~user
URL. Can anyone tell me how to give these files permission to be read from
outside or something.

Oh yeah, if you want to see it. http://javastraat.yi.org/~joostvl

Obviously, joostvl is the user

Joost,
Probably this is a rights-problem.
The user/group wich is related to the http service does not have rights
to the directory.
Yesterday I had the same problem when publishing a site.
Copying the site to the /home/httpd/html/... dir solved the problem.
A symbolic link did not work... :-(

You can also post to the dutch linux group, since you mailed from a
dutch account...

Regards,

Jos Buurman
