OK. In a standard apache setup, http://www.something_or_other.com/~someuser
does not point to the user's home directory; it points to a directory called
public_html inside that directory. So first thing, in your home directory
create public_html, make it world readable and executable ("chmod 755
public_html"), move the test file into it, and make the test file world
readable ("chmod 644 filename").
Then try again, If it doesn't work, report beck, including the complete
error message (include the number, please, as well as the text) and we'll
try again. I don't know if SuSE 6.1 setup has apache default to user
directories on or off. If off, you need to add a line to a config file
(probably srm.conf) that reads:
UserDir /home/*/public_html
You may need to add other directives for these directories, but offhand I
can't recall the details.
