Apache Virtual Host Q

[wilson claborn net (Jonathan Wilson)]

Howdy,

Being new to Linux we serving., I have a silly Q:

the DocumentRoot on this server is /home/httpd/html right now if you go to 
the main ip in a web browser you see the index.html that resides there.

I've figured out how to set up VirtualHosting OK, but I noticed that the 
example in /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf says:


DocumentRoot /www/docs/host.somedomain.com


Though the general Apache Docment root is of course /home/httpd/html

So my Q is, what's the standard place to keep the directories for all the 
Virtual Sites on a an Apache server? We'll probably have about 10 - 20 
sites, all with different names. Of course, right now they're on NT, and 
they all reside in C:\intepub (or something like that) so if you listed 
C:\inetpub you'd see folders:

C:\inetpub\ABC\
C:\inetpub\DEF\
C:\inetpub\Asdf\
C:\inetpub\MyHomeSite\
C:\inetpub\YourHomeSite\


Etc. Is /home/httpd/html a good enough place to move these too, or is there 
something insecure about it? It really doesn't matter to me, but I'd like 
to do what's ever's "standard".

Also, I'm intending on making all the dirs and docs owned by a webadmins 
group, and the users will just be whoever happens to make/move/copy the 
document (but not root) - does that sound ok?

Thanks a bunch,
