This is correct ... user dir '~' is defined in httpd.conf as:
UserDir public_html
Control access to the directories is defined as:
<Directory /home/*/public_html>
Options ...
</Directory>

I disagree. User files should stay where httpd.conf says they are.
You should put a default page in /var/www
If you go to my domain http://tor.ath.cx/ you will get my joke page -
IIS not properly installed (It is a Debian Server running Apache).
If you go to http://tor.ath.cx/~hunter you will get my personal page - I
am a user on the server. When I ftp to my server I am in /home/hunter
and there is a directory called public_html and that is where my web
site is.

I think you have something else wrong... like permissions perhaps.
cd into your /home/kent directory and type chown kent:kent * -R
Perhaps that will fix it ... you probably copied your files in as root
or you assigned them to wwa-data.
Normally Apache will not let you symlink unless they are owned by the
user - this is also defined in httpd.conf

yes this is what i wanted to be the output http://yourdomain.ph/~hisname
but by default, isn't it the home of the users is /home/username ???
as i've read some of the docs they are saying that it should be the path
of the users home..
but my problem is that it cannot be seen from the internet but within
the LAN i can browse to my page
my page is http://www.cdr.com.ph/~kent/

Kent, I advice you to move the user directories to /var/www/ because the
mainweb page ussualy place in this directori. So if you move your user
web file, their file will shown as http://yourdomain.ph/~hisname
Is this what you mean ?

Dear Kent,
A server will shown in Internet if the domain and its IP address has
published. If you have done this, the problem maybe comes from your web
application setting. What kind of application software do used ? cgi or
php or others ? if you write more specific, I think you will have the
answer from this mailing list :-).

Marno

Ok. tested it myself and got a 404 error, so it seems the error
message was correct. (The reason I wanted to make sure is that some
browsers simply can't be trusted when it comes to error messages.)
> for me its strange because www.cdr.com.ph can be found
Do you get the same stuff on "http://www.cdr.com.ph/" from inside
your net as you do from outside?
What's in the error log for the failed accesses?
What's in the access log for the successful ones?
Are there any proxies involved?
Do you have any Limit directives in the Apache config?
Apart from those quastions, I really have no idea what may be wrong.
Maybe you could let us see your config to see if there's anything odd
in there?

Did he get any answer at all from the web server?
If he did: what error message did he get?
Do you have a URL we could try in order to see what result we get?
Are you using virtual hosts?
Is the server behind a firewall?
Is there a DNS record pointing the domain name to the IP adress of
the server?
