Dave... Dirty cheat but it might work... At least it has with other Linux directories I've tried it on. Make sure that the box is able to do indexing ... this is turned off by default. (do a search for public_html in the httpd.conf file) Then in a user directory create a directory public_html (chmod 744) ... cd to that directory and do ln -s name_of_your_samba_mount some_file_name The when they go to www.somedomain.com/~username they will see that directory. It's quick, dirty and well ... it works. least it did for me.
