+
+
+ <p>The <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/mod_userdir.html#userdir">UserDir</a></code>
+ directive specifies a directory out of which per-user
+ content is loaded. This directive may take several different forms.</p>
+
+ <p>If a path is given which does not start with a leading slash, it is
+ assumed to be a directory path relative to the home directory of the
+ specified user. Given this configuration:</p>
+
+ <pre class="prettyprint lang-config">UserDir public_html</pre>
+
+
+ <p>the URL <code>http://example.com/~rbowen/file.html</code> will be
+ translated to the file path
+ <code>/home/rbowen/public_html/file.html</code></p>
+
+ <p>If a path is given starting with a slash, a directory path will be
+ constructed using that path, plus the username specified. Given this
+ configuration:</p>
+
+ <pre class="prettyprint lang-config">UserDir /var/html</pre>
+
+
+ <p>the URL <code>http://example.com/~rbowen/file.html</code> will be
+ translated to the file path <code>/var/html/rbowen/file.html</code></p>
+
+ <p>If a path is provided which contains an asterisk (*), a path is used
+ in which the asterisk is replaced with the username. Given this
+ configuration:</p>
+
+ <pre class="prettyprint lang-config">UserDir /var/www/*/docs</pre>
+
+
+ <p>the URL <code>http://example.com/~rbowen/file.html</code> will be
+ translated to the file path
+ <code>/var/www/rbowen/docs/file.html</code></p>
+
+ <p>Multiple directories or directory paths can also be set.</p>
+
+ <pre class="prettyprint lang-config">UserDir public_html /var/html</pre>
+
+
+ <p>For the URL <code>http://example.com/~rbowen/file.html</code>,
+ Apache will search for <code>~rbowen</code>. If it isn't found,
+ Apache will search for <code>rbowen</code> in <code>/var/html</code>. If
+ found, the above URL will then be translated to the file path
+ <code>/var/html/rbowen/file.html</code></p>

+<h2><a name="redirect" id="redirect">Redirecting to external URLs</a></h2>
+
+ <p>The <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/mod_userdir.html#userdir">UserDir</a></code> directive can be
+ used to redirect user directory requests to external URLs.</p>
+
+ <pre class="prettyprint lang-config">UserDir http://example.org/users/*/</pre>
+
+
+ <p>The above example will redirect a request for
+ <code>http://example.com/~bob/abc.html</code> to
+ <code>http://example.org/users/bob/abc.html</code>.</p>

+<div class="section">
+<h2><a name="enable" id="enable">Restricting what users are permitted to use this
+ feature</a></h2>
+
+
+ <p>Using the syntax shown in the UserDir documentation, you can restrict
+ what users are permitted to use this functionality:</p>
+
+ <pre class="prettyprint lang-config">UserDir disabled root jro fish</pre>
+
+
+ <p>The configuration above will enable the feature for all users
+ except for those listed in the <code>disabled</code> statement.
+ You can, likewise, disable the feature for all but a few users by
+ using a configuration like the following:</p>
+
+ <pre class="prettyprint lang-config">UserDir disabled
+UserDir enabled rbowen krietz</pre>
+
+
+ <p>See <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/mod_userdir.html#userdir">UserDir</a></code>
+ documentation for additional examples.</p>
+
+ </div><div class="top"><a href="#page-header"><img alt="top" src="../images/up.gif" /></a></div>
+<div class="section">
+<h2><a name="cgi" id="cgi">Enabling a cgi directory for each user</a></h2>
+
+
+ <p>In order to give each user their own cgi-bin directory, you can use
+ a <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/core.html#directory">&lt;Directory&gt;</a></code>
+ directive to make a particular subdirectory of a user's home directory
+ cgi-enabled.</p>
+
+ <pre class="prettyprint lang-config">&lt;Directory "/home/*/public_html/cgi-bin/"&gt;
+ Options ExecCGI
+ SetHandler cgi-script
+&lt;/Directory&gt;</pre>
+
+
+ <p>Then, presuming that <code>UserDir</code> is set to
+ <code>public_html</code>, a cgi program <code>example.cgi</code>
+ could be loaded from that directory as:</p>
+
+ <div class="example"><p><code>
+ http://example.com/~rbowen/cgi-bin/example.cgi
+ </code></p></div>

+<div class="section">
+<h2><a name="htaccess" id="htaccess">Allowing users to alter configuration</a></h2>
+
+
+ <p>If you want to allows users to modify the server configuration in
+ their web space, they will need to use <code>.htaccess</code> files to
+ make these changes. Ensure that you have set <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/core.html#allowoverride">AllowOverride</a></code> to a
+ value sufficient for the directives that you want to permit the users
+ to modify. See the <a href="htaccess.html">.htaccess tutorial</a> for
+ additional details on how this works.</p>
