Editing Subdomain roots

[nicoliver]

Hi,
I am currently trying to find a way of creating manual paths for subdomains within a user account.
When adding a subdomain it currently auto creates the relevant folder within the user account. cPanel then sets the root of the subdomain to this folder.
I would like to set the root of the subdomains to the public_html folder of the account.

If you have any suggestions on how to do this it would be much appreciated.

thanks
nic

If you want the subdomains to resolve from the public_html itself, you will need to manually change the document root of the subdomain in the virtualhost entry inside the http.conf file in the server to /home/username/public_html.

the file to be edited is /usr/local/apache/conf/httpd.conf. if you dont have root access to the server, inform the hosting company of your domain.
