I am setting up a web server as a learning exercise using RH 8, Apache and ProFTP. Part of what I want to do is setup virtual servers using user accounts, like most virtual hosting services do.

I have found this remarkably easy to do this with Apache by simply changing the UserDir line in the default http.conf file.

So this works: http://www.mydomain.com/~user/

Now, how do I get it to work without the trailing slash?

I think what you want to look at is name based virtual hosting .

I have a tutorial/tip on how to do this on my website but it seems they (the moderators) don't like people redirecting you to other urls.

send me an email if you want me to give you the url
of these apache tutorials
