ispconfig3 - website path

[ilaidlaw]

I'd prefer the web directories be stored under /home/clients rather then /var/clients. I realize I could just make a symlink, but I tried changing the configuration for "Website path" and "Website symlinks", however the resulting apache vhost file still contains /var/www as the base path for DocumentRoot. Switching it back, and using a symlink makes it all work again.

Secondly, a symlink is made into /var/www/[domain]. This symlink points to the directory containing [cgi-bin, log, ssl, tmp, web]. That is also the home directory for shell users. Seems like the symlink should point to the "web" directory instead?

You can configure the website path in the ispconfig server settings.

This is nescessary and cant be changed if you want to use php or cgi with suexec on your server.

Ok, it caught me by surprise that home directories were exposed to the web by default :) Great work on ispconfig, it's a pretty fantastic piece of software!
