Thanks for pointing out that thread. Following its advice, the first 
part of the farmconfig.php is now:

<?php if (!defined('PmWiki')) exit();
$FarmPubDirUrl = 'http://www.onebit.ca/sites/wikipub';
## Browser can find that directory and list its contents nicely.

$SkinLibDirs = array(
   "./pub/skins/\$Skin"      => "$PubDirUrl/skins/\$Skin",
   "home/mhschoen/www/sites/wikipub/skins/\$Skin" => 
"$FarmPubDirUrl/skins/\$Skin",
   );


For comparison, the config.php (in http://www.onebit.ca/sites/site1/)
is:

<?php include('/home/mhschoen/pmwiki/pmwiki.php');


I feel totally lost here. Too many tools I know nothing about. Is 
everything in the public directory (the default install), really that 
insecure?
