No, it means the subdirectory server below the user hobbit's home directory 
(since most shells expand ~<user> to be the home directory of <user>).

So, let's hope your hobbit user has a home directory of /usr/local/etc/hobbit 
(though, that is quite a weird place to install hobbit to, /usr/local/hobbit 
would make a lot more sense ...).
