Please don't do that. It's very insecure. Read permission for files and read+execute permission for directories will be fine. In your httpd.conf file, immediately below the UserDir section, is a commented-out section like this: <Directory /home/*/public_html> ... </Directory> You need to uncomment that as well. There is no need to turn off SELinux protection to do this. All you should need is: # restorecon -r /home/*/public_html # setsebool -P httpd_enable_homedirs 1 Paul.
