  51     <p>The <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/mod_userdir.html#userdir">UserDir</a></code>
  52     directive specifies a directory out of which per-user

  54
  55     <p>If a path is given which does not start with a leading slash, it is
  56     assumed to be a directory path relative to the home directory of the
  57     specified user. Given this configuration:</p>
  58
  59     <div class="example"><p><code>

  64     translated to the file path
  65     <code>/home/rbowen/public_html/file.html</code></p>
  66
  67     <p>If a path is given starting with a slash, a directory path will be
  68     constructed using that path, plus the username specified. Given this
  69     configuration:</p>

  71     <div class="example"><p><code>
  72       UserDir /var/html

  77
  78     <p>If a path is provided which contains an asterisk (*), a path is used

  96     <p>Using the syntax shown in the UserDir documentation, you can restrict
  97     what users are permitted to use this functionality:</p>
  98
  99     <div class="example"><p><code>
 100       UserDir enabled<br />
 101       UserDir disabled root jro fish
 102     </code></p></div>
 103
 104     <p>The configuration above will enable the feature for all users
 105     except for those listed in the <code>disabled</code> statement.
 106     You can, likewise, disable the feature for all but a few users by
 107     using a configuration like the following:</p>
 108
 109     <div class="example"><p><code>
 110       UserDir disabled<br />
 111       UserDir enabled rbowen krietz

 113
 114     <p>See <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/mod_userdir.html#userdir">UserDir</a></code>
 115     documentation for additional examples.</p>

 119 <h2><a name="cgi" id="cgi">Enabling a cgi directory for each user</a></h2>
 120
 121
 122    <p>In order to give each user their own cgi-bin directory, you can use
 123     a <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/core.html#directory">&lt;Directory&gt;</a></code>
 124     directive to make a particular subdirectory of a user's home directory
 125     cgi-enabled.</p>

 128       &lt;Directory /home/*/public_html/cgi-bin/&gt;<br />

 131        &lt;/Directory&gt;
 132     </code></p></div>
 133
 134     <p>Then, presuming that <code>UserDir</code> is set to
 135     <code>public_html</code>, a cgi program <code>example.cgi</code>
 136     could be loaded from that directory as:</p>

 145
 146
 147     <p>If you want to allows users to modify the server configuration in
 148     their web space, they will need to use <code>.htaccess</code> files to
 149     make these changed. Ensure that you have set <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/core.html#allowoverride">AllowOverride</a></code> to a
 150     value sufficient for the directives that you want to permit the users
 151     to modify. See the <a href="htaccess.html">.htaccess tutorial</a> for
 152     additional details on how this works.</p>
