Directory Alias/Virtual Directory in Shared Hosting

I have an agreement for a shared hosting package with GoDaddy, using Linux and CPanel. When I attempt to create a directory alias (also known as a virtual directory), I see no reasonable means of doing so. There is this thread: Directory Alias in WHM or Cpanel Although, the links seem to redirect to a default page. I have attempted to lookup enabling custom Apache modules. I have also attempted to utilize the ln command to create symbolic links of directories, but it seems that an Apache configuration to enable following linked directories is required to do so. I am not able to find the httpd.conf file for the server I am on. Any ideas?

  The ln command seemed to work once I used fully qualified paths.
