Oh, that is not possible like you want it to do:
Think: You want execute scripts in your directory.
Apache only execute scripts owned by root or owned by the user defined in the 
User-entry in httpd.conf.
There is a modul for user exports. With that you can export everything beneath
/home/username/html. The url is then http://computername/~username.
You have to configure apache to use cgi-scripts in that directory.
If its work must be test before installation of openca

And then

Normaly openca has to export 
 <openca_path>/apache/htdocs  for html pages
 <openca_path>/apache/cgi-bin  for cgi scripts

In the configure options, I think you have to set:
--with-httpd-fs-prefix=HTTPDFSPREFIX  
      --->  /home/username/html  
Please create /home/username/html/htdocs and /home/username/html/cgi-bin
--with-httpd-url-prefix=HTTPDURLPREFIX   
      --->   http://computername/~username                    
Then the url http//computername/~username/htdocs/ will work.


 I think that schould work.
But for ra you need another user.
Perhaps Michael has some hints for your setup.
