title: remove tilde (~) from address
body: <p>the issue here is that we need to remove the tilde character from the address right now looks like this:</p>
  
  <p><a href="http://192.169.198.158/~mx/" rel="nofollow">http://192.169.198.158/~mx/</a></p>
  
  <p>and we want to end with the same address just without the tilde character (~)</p>
  
  <p>this in order to create a softlynk to point this link to our server
  example . com / mx /</p>
  
  <p>i've found some suggestion saying that i need to insert a chunk of code into my server, one of the questions is: 
  the code being this:
  
   
      RewriteEngine  on</p>
  
  <pre><code># Make the needed exceptions
  
  RewriteCond    %{REQUEST_URI}         ^.*/icons/.*
  RewriteRule    ^(.*)$                 $1           [PT,L]
  
  RewriteCond    %{REQUEST_URI}         ^.*/error/.*
  RewriteRule    ^(.*)$                 $1           [PT,L]
  
  # Make /username work, remember: each paren is a $#, sequentially
  
  RewriteRule    ^/([a-z0-9]+)$         /$1/         [R]
  RewriteRule    ^/([a-z0-9]+)/$        /~$1/        [PT]
  RewriteRule    ^/([a-z0-9]+)/(.*)$    /~$1/$2      [PT]
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>
  </p>
  
  <p>where do i put it? in an .htaccess file? or it has to go directly into the httpd.conf file?</p>
  
  <p>thanks in advance</p>
