change public_html dir under skeleton dir

[ampunboss]

I'm moving old server (no cpanel) to new server that using cpanel. my old server is now using "/home/username/www" format for default html directory, but cpanel using "/home/username/public_html", i was wondering how i could change this default html directory at cpanel.

It shouldn't make any difference because cpanel also creates a www symbolic link to point to public_html, so they're basically one and the same. Users can use either one for most situations.

then i can use the following path to home dir /home/username/www ?

what if i want to point /home/username/htdocs? where & how should i make a symbolic link

Yes

A symlink is created in shell. To see how it works, in a shell screen type either:
ln --help
or
man ln
