To the FreeBSD guys (and gals):

Hi, I'm working on a problem with Apache (1.3.9) w/PHP3 compiled in. 
Normally, when users go to http://www.domain.com/~username, the web daemon 
fetches the pages corresponding to the directory under the user's home 
directory specified by the UserDir directive in httpd.conf. Unfortunately, I 
had to restore the machine from a backup - and must have killed /etc 
directory in the process. Anyway, everytime the HTTPD tries to fetch a 
user's website, it bounces back with an error:

Sep 25 03:11:45 sparrow httpd: /etc/pwd.db: Permission denied

The permissions are set to -rw-r--r-- (chmod 644). The file is owned by user 
root and group wheel. Are these correct? Thank you for your time.
