Comment out the LoadModule userdir_module line or add a line UserDir disabled > Second: If I wanted users to have access to their public_html directories, > is there a way to have these public_html directories on a different > server? For example: I have apache running here: 142.23.45.67 > but all my user accounts and home directories are on this server: > 142.23.45.200 > Is it even possible to have my web sever use a different server > to access the users public_html folder in their home directory? If 142.23.45.67 is server1, and 142.23.45.200 is server2, then server1 needs the following directives: RewriteEngine On RewriteRule ^/(~.+) http://server2/$1 [R,L] and server2 needs userdirs configured normally. -- Nathan Norman - Staff Engineer | A good plan today is better Micromuse Ltd. | than a perfect plan tomorrow. mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] | -- Patton
