You did not specify the disty you are using. On 6.1, I have found I had to
adjust permissions on the path to the user's web directory. Unfortunately,
I have forgotten which directory I changed, and how.

Also, the default setup provides "public_html", which Apache is set to
use. I don't see any reason to make it a hidden directory (which is the
effect of the leading period in the file name).
