If he/she really needs to move it, the answer is to look at the /etc/httpd/httpd.conf file and in there change DocumentRoot to where they need it to be. But I really think that whatever their problem is, there is a better solution (unless they are moving it to another drive and don't want to play with mount points).

I have no idea why he wants to do this, but he asked me and I had no idea. Hence I posted here. Thanks for the httpd.conf tip though.
I was wondering how to put an alias of my mp3s folder or something into my web server folder so that I can access them at school.
In the /etc/httpd/httpd.conf file, if you tell it to follow symlinks, you can. This is set by default. The key is to make a symlink (use cocktail) and change the permission of your Music folder (the original in your home directory) to be readable by the world.
