[QUOTE="screenmates, post: 233555"] Hello, Trying to figure out a way to point the httpd document-root to my Documents folder to make the files completely private. I was able to modify the httpd.conf but I guess I was unable to set the www user access the localhost because my Documents folder is private! However, I was able to accomplish this on XP without a problem. The purpose of doing this is to hide my source-code from prying eyes. How do I set the www user able to execute files on localhost on my Documents folder but not allow reading the source files? The default localhost is installed on: /Library/WebServer/Documents that allows other users access my source-code and I wish to point it to: /Users/<user>/Documents User-type: Administrator Please help... TIA [/QUOTE]
