[users@httpd] Problems accessing aliases with Apache

[Curt Crandall <cc...@yahoo.com>]

I have a very strange problem that I've been
struggling with.  I have enabled Apache on my iMac. 
Using the default httpd.conf, I tried to get to my
~username/ link by typing my IP/~username/ into the
URL box.

On the server, the URL turns into:

127.0.0.1/~username/
or
localhost/~username/

If I try the URL from a remote machine, I get a 301
error in access_log.

I can get to the default page (i.e. index.html.en in
the document root) and the /manual/ alias by typing
the URL into the URL text field of the browser.  I can
also access my other aliases and ~username/ if I put a
link to it on the default page.  However, any alias
I've defined will generate the 301 error if I try to
access the specific URL from a remote machine.

This makes no sense to me, so I was hoping someone
here has run into this problem before and may have
some helpful advise.

I'm running an iMac G4-800 with OSX 10.1.5 and Apache
1.3.23.

TIA,
Curt
