RewriteRule ^/users/([^/]+)/?(.*) /~$1/public_html/$2
In the interest of scalability, I actually have a virtual host set up that
does this:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond /usr/local/share/apache/htdocs/home/%{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^/([^/]+)/?(.*) /~$1/public_html/$2
Sites are accessed as: http://home.i-plus.net/user
HTH,

** Subject: [OT] AliasMatch or Rewrite solution for user homepages
**
**
** The whole idea idea behind this is to get rid of the tidle '~' character
** from
** a users home page. Example www.domain.com/~username to
** www.domain.com/users/username.
** I've almost got it to work by using the following apache configuration
** parameters.
**
** Alias /users/ /home/
** UserDir http://www.domain.com/users/*
**
** This effectivly aliases to /home/username/, but since all the users pages
** are located
** in /home/username/public_html I get a directory listing denied
** error. How do
** I tell
** apache to look in the latter directory?
**
** Thanks in advance!
