Damn, spent the last day and a half trying to figure why none of the user blogs on the newly built and currently building UFies.org box weren't working (figured I'd majorly screwed something up) and I finally find that 1 - movable type likes to be able to write to the db directory (updating indexes or something I assume) and also that suexec won't work with vhosts if they are in user ~/public_html directories. That sucks, but at least now I know!
