Read the docs/conf files...

Check /etc/httpd/conf/srm.conf to see if the line
UserDir  public_html
is commented out.

Then check if ~user and ~user/public_html has x permissions for others.
Next, check ~user/public_html/index.html has r perms for others.

If you had to change /etc/httpd/conf/*.conf, then better restart httpd.

As to the second query, one suggestion is to link
~user/public_html to /home/httpd/html/user (or wherever your ServerRoot is).
