Do you have an alias or something mapping the URL to your home
directory? The URL doesn't give you direct access to everything on
your machine (heavens no!). You have to tell it where things are. There is
a module which already maps the /~user/what/ever URLs to
/home/user/what/ever. But have you told it how to get to
/home/mikel/whatever?
It's just that your URLs look a bit too "open"
