- Yes. You need the userdir module. See
- http://www.omnipresence.com/aserver/modules/userdir.html for
- information on how it works, and
- http://www.phone.net/aws/betaform.html for information on how you get
- a copy.

- It uses the AmiTCP usergroup.library, so only the password files
- supported by that can be used.
-
- BTW, since a bare "~" isn't legal in a URL (yet another example of
- NetScapes support of open standards), I seriously recommend doing:
-
- map /home/ userdir public_html
-
- instead. Of course, AWS will let you do both (and may be the only
- server for any platform that will):
-
- map /~ userdir public_html
- map /home/ userdir public_html
