your default webspace is var/www/html if you change this all your other website files should also be moved to this new location. Hence why would you change and also not good to keep website files under root... not preferable..

Why do you even have to change it?  When I had a server I never edited httpd.conf and my CP worked fine on my VPS.

Hi mrlongshen,

 

You can't. Unless you create a different user (other than 'root') and specify a homedir for it.
