Aargh, I need to setup something on a server here, and the dude who is normally doing the server shit happens to be abroad and I cannot reach him...

Fairly easy problem

/var/www/html should be the root directory, so I can add a folder for this guy where he can put his site.

So when I go to the root directory using the WWW I end up @ the site that is stored @ /var/www/html/subdir1

Ok, no problem, he probably changed the root directory in the httpd.conf file. I check, negative. So maybe he changed the .htaccess rewrite rules. Nope.

Any other suggestion where these things can be changed?

if the server has php running you can use the following to get the absolute path:

Code:
<?php
$path = getcwd();
echo "This Is Your Absolute Path: ";
echo $path;
?>

i finally figured it out. Some virtual hosting plugin in apache. Never heard of it.

Depening on the DNS redirect you are coming from to the main server, a separate directory on the server is chosen. Nice, no clue this even existed...
