Re: [newbie] Permission problems with Apache
Actually, what he is wanting to do is have one directory per domain, not alias each site directory off of a single domain. In this case, he should have an entry such as: # IP-based Virtual Hosts #VirtualHost 192.168.2.100 #User jmdault #Group jmdault #DocumentRoot /home/jmdault/public_html #ServerName test2.com #Setenv VLOG /home/jmdault/logs #ErrorLogs /home/jmdault/test2-error_log #RewriteEngine On #RewriteOptions inherit #/VirtualHost or possibly: # Named VirtualHosts #NameVirtualHost 111.222.33.44 #VirtualHost 111.222.33.44 #ServerName www.domain.tld #ServerPath /domain #DocumentRoot /web/domain #/VirtualHost in /etc/httpd/conf/vhosts/Vhosts.conf .

[newbie] Permission problems with Apache
Over the weekend, I fried a hard drive on the Dell notebook I've been using as a web and mail server for my DSL line. Won't tell you the whole long story, but I've almost got it back to where it was, except that I have a permissions problem with the directories containing the several web sites. I have set permissions to 755, with the user and group names set to user and apache. These are in user's home directory, home/user/html/ and I keep getting an error message when trying to access the sites: Forbidden You don't have permission to access / on this server. Can anyone offer any suggestions? I'm stumped. Andy Miller Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft? Go to http://www.mandrakestore.com
Re: [newbie] Permission problems with Apache
Hi... How you configure the apache web server ( httpd.conf ), I have some suggestion to you. you should re-setup your apache configuration. you can setup there in the line were tell you like Document /home/*/public/html... .. /Document you should put your web files in there and restart your apache daemon. try access it from lynx or konqueror like this : http://your.hostname.domain/~user_name/ OK, i hope you understand my english, because i'm from Indonesia, and still learn about english language.. Have fun :) --- [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Over the weekend, I fried a hard drive on the Dell notebook I've been using as a web and mail server for my DSL line.

Re: [newbie] Permission problems with Apache
Actually, in LM 8.2 it's already there in /etc/httpd/conf/commonhttp.conf and it links to /home/*/public_html So make a folder in your home directory called public_html, add an index.html file in to test with, and then log in like said below. What I would like to know is: I am using dyndns.org to add a DNS to my computer. Let's say it's called thiscomputer.homelinux.org What I would like to do is add a directory somewhere, and have a link of let's say: other_directory.thiscomputer.homelinux.org Dyndns supports this, because I'm running a jabber server here, and jabber uses these locations to run it's different protocols (ICQ, MSN, AOL, Yahoo). Does anyone have any idea to maybe alias it or something, so when a user goes to other_directory.thisconputer.homelinux.org he get's transferred not to the standard apache root, but another folder?
