RE: [cobalt-developers] Replacing /~user with /user

["Ian McCabe" <idmccabe@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks for the info Ryan,

I shall give that a try.

Just to note. My Raq is a RaQ4r and has not had anything to do with symlinks
altered in any way, so should this work okay, or would it require some sort
of change?

Thanks again,

Ian

--> Sure...
-->
--> telnet/ssh into your cobalt, cd to the correct http serving
--> folder of the
--> site you're interested in, and do this:
-->
--> ln -s ~user user
-->
--> Replacing user with the username, of course.
-->
--> This of course requires that your site DOES follow SymLinks (Options
--> SymLinks in your apache config), which I'm not sure on your particular
--> Cobalt is enabled or not.  Give it a try, in any case.

--> | Hi all,

--> |
--> | i.e. by default the RaQ system has say:

--> | www.mydomain.com/~userloginname1
--> | www.mydomain.com/~userloginname2 by default.
--> |
--> | I would like if possible to change this to:
--> |
--> | www.mydomain.com/userloginname1
--> | www.mydomain.com/userloginname2
--> |
--> | Any ideas, suggestions or possible solutions would be very much
