I help students manage a school intranet website on a machine running Red
Hat 2.4.18-14 and Apache 2.0.40.

How do I keep my student users with accounts on the machine from being
able to access, via Putty, /home/bobo/public_html, the directory in which
I keep all of the content for the site, including tests and quizzes for my
students' online use?

 I can password protect, using .htaccess, specific directories from
"unauthorized" access, but I would like to provide similar protection for
the /home/bobo/public_html/Prog/tests directory.  If I change permissions
via chmod, however, then Apache will not be able to serve the pages to the
intranet.
