    Hi,

    I was recommended to ask here for information on running Apache in a way
    that regular system users can access their home directories.

      I think this is quite a straightforward question -- I'd like to allow
    user fred to log in over HTTPS and have access to upload, delete,
    rename, etc. all of the files he has permission to access (or possibly
    restricted to just his home directory -- sort of a chroot).

      Is this possible using Apache (or maybe some other application)? And
    more importantly can it be done in a secure fashion?

      Thanks very much,

    -lewiz.
