XAMPP link to html folder in user directory forbidden.

Hi,

XAMPP works fine when I put files in /opt/lampp/htdocs/, but I like to have my projects in my home directory, so I've created a link to it like this:

ln -s ~/public_html /opt/lampp/htdocs/$USER

Unfortunately I get "403 Access Forbidden!" error. Is there a better way to do this or do I have to change something in configuration?

It sounds to me like a permissions problem. A little googlin' resulted in:
