We've put our web root in a different location from /home and even though
I've turned on the public_html option in the httpd.conf file, it still gives
me:
Forbidden
You don't have permission to access /~chee on this server.

Here is the section of the httpd.conf file that is supposed to turn this
option on...oh yeah, the public_html directory under the users home
directory is setup for 755

<Directory /home/*/public_html>
    AllowOverride FileInfo AuthConfig Limit
    Options MultiViews Indexes SymLinksIfOwnerMatch IncludesNoExec
    <Limit GET POST OPTIONS PROPFIND>
        Order allow,deny

    <Limit PUT DELETE PATCH PROPPATCH MKCOL COPY MOVE LOCK UNLOCK>
        Order deny,allow
        Deny from all
