Should be a matter of getting getting http_root to point to ftp_root.
It might also need some setting for virtual directory listing or similar.

Not sure how p.rh.com is setup, but you may just be able to point 
.public_html to the root of your ftp tree. I haven't worked much with 
anon-ftp setups.

Where are the apache and ftp gurus...

Doesn't matter as much now. If you guys start setting up yum 
repositories, I just have to enter it in yum.conf and forget about 
whether it's ftp or http :) If I need to know, I can check yum.conf anyway.
