    Hi,

    I recently brought a new server..

    Just wondering why I cannot access all user's websites using the IP then ~username? (without the / ?)

    For example, I am hosting someone called albahost..

    Their URL for their site (before propogation) is:
    http://208.53.138.36/~albahost/

    Although it works.. how come http://208.53.138.36/~albahost doesnt work? :confused:

    Any help would be appreciated..

    Looks like a Apache issue?

    Thanks :D

    Make sure mod_user is loaded, and uncommented in the config

    <IfModule mod_userdir.c>
    UserDir public_html
    </IfModule>

    Security

    Make sure you add the line UserDir disabled Root like:

    <IfModule mod_userdir.c>
    UserDir public_html
    UserDir disabled root
    </IfModule>

    This prevents accessing the root's home using serverip/~root

    I had the same problem. For others who have the same, I fixed it by changing UseCanonicalName to off in httpd.conf.

    UseCanonicalName Off
