>Environment:
RedHat Linux 5.1 & 5.2
>Description:
I am attempting to set up apache on numberous servers.  I have setup three boxes two have redhat 5.1 and the third has
Redhat 5.2.  After installing the apache-1.3.3 rpm, I am unable to obtain access
to any of the user's "public_html" access.

here is what the error log states....

I attempted to user the older 1.2.6 rpm and recieved the same problem

I have copied configuration files off of other working Redhat server; however, this does 
not fix the problem?
>How-To-Repeat:
1.  Do a fresh install of Redhat linux
2.  Install rpm
3.  Immediately try to access http://localhost/~someuser
	where someuser has a viable public_html directory and some index.html file in it
>Fix:
No
