Subject: Re: [users@httpd] Directory access

I did copy / paste it and we were surprised it worked. In the Httpd.conf 
 we have the following statement.#
# UserDir: The name of the directory which is appended onto a user's home
# directory if a ~user request is received.
#
UserDir public_html

<Directory "/*/*/public_html">
    Options +ExecCGI
    AllowOverride None
    Order allow,deny
    Allow from all
</Directory>
              
But until we added the lines to Mod_perl.conf, Perl scripts would not 
run. Can you provide a little more detail of your idea of <Directory and 
does it matter if its in Mod_perl.conf or Httpd.conf.
