Hello list members, I've just started to use the "~user/" directories in Apache. SuSE 7.1 configures Apache to run as wwwrun user and nogroup group. Apparently this user cannot access home directories on the filesystem, therefore cannot serve the pages properly. Only a forbidden error is issued. If I allow read and execute permissions on the home directory and the public_html directory things work as expected, BUT this allows EVERYONE to browse the contents of home directories. It seems SuSE would have prepared for this and developed a procedure to allow for the use of public_html directories. Can someone please enlighten me? ~Dale ________________________________ Dale Schuster MIS Manager Lake Tahoe Horizon Casino Resort dschuster@horizoncasino.com
