And, I think you still need to set the usual *ix permissions.  Make all
servable directories, and their parents, executable to other users.
Make all files being served readable to other users.

rwx-----x /home
rwx-----x /home/username
rwx-----x /home/username/public_html
rwx---r-x /home/username/public_html/homepage.html
