I think it could be done with MonoApplication /~ /home and then using RewritePath to rewrite ~user/index.aspx to ~user/public_html/index.aspx internally, which will then be mapped to /home/user/public_html/index.aspx > Why?

We can modify Request to support user directories, but it may be better to create a hook point in MapPath(), that allows you to have arbitrary code providing that functionality. What I have in mind is a module that runs the mapped path thru Apache API and then takes a look at the resulting path_translated filed in the request_rec structure. This would allow us to reuse all the existing Apache modules that map virtual paths to physical paths, such as mod_userdir or mod_rewrite. That would require that: a) All MapPath functions eventually call Request.MapPath() (I did some greping and think that is the case) b) Other parts of the code do not make assumptions that physical paths are rooted in the Application physical path, as for example happens in mcs/class/System.Web/System.Web.Compilation/AspGenerator.cs See patch in http://lists.ximian.com/archives/public/mono-list/2003-March/012992.html Cheers Daniel _______________________________________________ Mono-list maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/mono-list
