Hi,
   I am running apache under fedora core 2. I am a Linux newbie
but i am learning. I have my server up and running but
I don't have my documentroot set correctly. Right now, I have
the docroot in /www/<blah blah>... and my site pulls up fine.

  I think? however, that I want it to be under my user in /home
  but when i set the docroot to /home/<username>/<blah blah> ..
I get this

Forbidden
You don't have permission to access / on this server.

Additionally, a 403 Forbidden error was encountered while trying to
use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Apache/2.0.49 (Fedora) Server at www.orderbuttons.com Port 80

I think i need to set some permissions somewhere but I am
unsure where.

I plan on hosting many unrelated sites with this server so I think
setting up a new user for each site and that website residing in
each /home/<user> is the best way to organize? I am
sure this is a matter of personal preference, but is there
a good site that discussing web hosting organization.

Thanks,
Chuck
