Hi,

I'm having trouble configuring apache so that the public_html folder can
be a symbolic link to another directory.  On my Ubuntu 10.04
installation, my userdir.conf file includes the 'FollowSymLinks' option
for the /home/*/public_html directories.  However, if I try to access my
user directory from a browser 'http://localhost/~username', I get a 403
Forbidden error.  In the apache error log, it says:

Symbolic link not allowed or link target not accessible:
/home/username/public_html

I have ruled out the possibility that this is a permission problem since
I can access the directory directly rather than through the symbolic link.

Any ideas would be appreciated.

Could it be "SymLinksIfOwnerMatch":
