How can I tell?  Since I didn't explicitly change the file
I didn't keep a backup.

Do you mean to uncomment all of the following?

# UserDir is now a module
#UserDir public_html
#UserDir disabled root

#<Directory /home/*/public_html>
#	AllowOverride FileInfo AuthConfig Limit
#	Options Indexes SymLinksIfOwnerMatch IncludesNoExec
#</Directory>


But I'm not sure this is the whole answer.  As you notice
below I symlink from public_html.  I may need to add that
target directory, /media/abrownExtra/public_html/, to a
whitelist.  How can I do that?
