Mark,
No, you can't change this without access to the httpd.conf file.
However - I'd be VERY surprised if the document root is set to /home. This is
the default directory for your web site; it should NOT be home.
I suspect your real document root is something/public_html (or something
similar). That's what's standard; if it isn't your entire web site would be broken.
