So if I'm reading this right, you're suggesting a group called webusers
and individuals assigned to that group, right? Originally, I had wondered
about creating a group for each school (perhaps more than one person would
like to help with the Web page) and multiple users in that group. That may
be needlessly complex, however, at this point.

So you're suggesting that the virtual hosting breaks the ~/username path
to an individual's personal page? It works OK at home, but I don't have
any virtual hosts there either.
