well, i now feel rediculous, as my error turned out to be a mistype of my intended <directory> path in the config file. i never troubleshoot the easy stuff first, i always assume something horrible has happened, and i spend my day googling... nothing! so, its working now. your advice that the 2.0 config is basically the same animal as the 2.2 config, caused me to look more closely at what i had done. thanks, jonathan --------------------------------------------------------------------- The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project.
