change DocumentRoot

[ruiner17]

I'm looking for a solution to change the document root from the default.

currently it goes to

/home/<name>/public_html/

I would like to change it to

/home/<name>/public_html/public/

I have some files/dirs that I would like to be kept outside of the docroot. How can I do this without access to the httpd.conf?

Thanks,
James

This is not something that you can change nor will we change it. You can store files outside of the public_html directory already.

thanks for the reply.

As Andrew says, just store the files that you want out of the public_html folder.
You can then include them or do whatever you need to by calling them as /home/USER/file.blah
