I don't think web sharing is supported in Mountain Lion any longer. I
could be wrong, but I believe that is what I read. Thus, you won't find
that folder.

OK guys. So here's the situation. I am running OSX Mountain Lion
10.8.2. I have gone under system preferences, then to sharing. I turned
on web sharing, which started the web Apache http daemon service built
into the OS by default out of the box. The problem is, even after
enabling the root user account which for liability reasons I am not on
list going to reveal how to do, I still cannot see under /etc/apache any
type of httpd.conf file that I can edit in Text Edit like I would do on
Unix/Linux. I know that one for 20 bucks in the app store can get the
server extention add-ons, but why do that only for a GUI front end
interface? Sure it makes things like setting up dns routing, port
mascing, IP cloning etc. more easy, but... Basically, I only need to
really make two changes. By default, the web daemon is set to be user
specific. This means if I want to access a file over the web http
service, I must go to:
http://IPAddress/~UserName
IE: http://192.168.1.11/~chris
Then, basically I can access from there anything inside
/MacintoshHD/Users/chris/Sites, such as index.html
So my question is, I want to change the directive within the conf file so
that instead of it being user specific, it is system-wide. This way
instead of going to an address formatted like above, I could instead jsut
go to:
http://IPAddress
and that's it. no /~UserName at the end. The only problem is, in doing
this, if I make the service system wide, then I'd also suspect I'd have
to somehow change the HTDocs location so that there would be one global
system wide directory where all web files would go. Then I'd probably
have to chmod the thing and set not just the owner and the group, but
also everyone else to RW, read/write.
chmod 666 /MacintoshHD/Users/chris/PathToWebFiles/*
So really, I need to knwo A, where is the conf file, B, how to change
those two directives in the file.
Chris.
