Also the entries from the error log would be useful. There are (at least) two distinct ways to get "Forbidden" - the httpd.conf doesn't say that apache can server pages from a particular {directory;URL;etc} or, the httpd.conf says that it *is* OK, but when apache gets to the file it wants to serve, the operating system says "you can't read that file".

And since we don't, my advice would be to start looking at these places: http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/mod/mod_access.html#allow (And: http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/mod/mod_access.html#deny) http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/mod/mod_access.html#order Check in your config files if you used these directives at multiple places for the same VH. Or post your config so someone can look at it.
