[users@httpd] *Update Alias Problem - OpenBSD

Here are some more details.. let me know if this offers any insight.

Trying to access : http://www.xxx.com/icon/ shows me the icons directory.
Trying to access : http://www.xxx.com/home/ shows me the default 404 page.

It shows up in my access_log as:
66.41.xxx.xxxx - - [01/Feb/2003:19:50:27 -0600] "GET /home/ HTTP/1.1" 404 211

It shows up in my error_log as:
[Sat Feb  1 19:50:27 2003] [error] [client 66.41.xxx.xxx] File does not 
exist: /

Let me know if there is any more info I can get for you.
Thanks.

OK, the /var/www/icon directory exists.  (/var/www is your DocumentRoot,
right?)

/var/www/home seems not to exist.  If you are trying to access the
user's home directory, the syntax is http://www.xxx.com/~<user>.  Look
to the UserDir: section in httpd.conf.  Of course for best results,
RTFM:
