you have to alter settings in httpd.conf

You can change ever path that says /var/www/ to /home/

to know the exact path of httpd.conf in your OS use this command in ssh

find / -name httpd.conf

this would show you path of every httpd.conf file in ur file system

replace /var/www with /home in httpd.conf

my httpd.conf is Blank

Perhaps you have more than one httpd.conf file on your system?

You can enter this in your terminal/console/ssh...
Change username to the actual username!

sudo cp -R /var/www/ /home/username/
sudo chown -R username:username /home/username/www/
sudo rm -r /var/www/
sudo ln -s /home/username/www /var/www

.. Ok I'm joking.

Do this

sudo nano /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/default

Look for /var/www/ and replace it to what you want.
Pro-tip: /var/www/ might occur multiple times, make sure to change ALL /var/www's
Pro-tip?: when you're done, make sure to restart apache.

sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart

edit:
to all those saying edit httpd.conf.
In debian httpd.conf is named apache2.conf
In debian all the virtualhost-shit isn't set in apache2.conf but placed in /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/ ( actually /sites-available and linked to sites-enabled )
This ofcourse if the apache2 package got installed using the package manager.

I use Debian 6.0 and ISP CONFIG

Yes, but you should have root access, so just fire up putty ( google it ) and connect to your server like a boss.

I can't help you further if you can't connect using SSH.
Perhaps someone else can take it from here.

EDIT:
Checked your screenshot.
You have SSH, good. Now just do what I said.
If ISP CONFIG crashes due to what you're going to do, you'll have killed two birds with one stone!

I connect SSH
